Five Friday Happy Bringers 5/1/26

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. This very cool, quirky restroom in The Sentient Bean coffee house in Savannah.

2. Early voting on Monday!

3. The wonderful gift of the ability to read. (Not everybody can.)

4. A fun “inFARMation” stop at Southern Belle Farm in McDonough GA.

5. Having a blast at Truist Park as the Atlanta Braves played the Detroit Lions.

I hope you have a winning weekend ahead.
