St. Patrick’s Day Away

Posted on March 17, 2026March 17, 2026 by Neal Saye

HR and I live in Savannah, home of one of the country’s largest (and rowdiest) St. Patrick’s Day Parades. We live directly on the parade route, which sounds terrific, and I suppose it was for the first couple of years.

But the parade (and even the days before) soon became somewhat of a headache, at least for us. Very party-oriented folks heavy drinking, property destroying.

So anyway, Robert and I get out of Dodge for a few days.

This year, we escaped to Magnolia Springs State Park and one of their cottages, a couple of hours north of us.

We didn’t have a parade, but we did have peace.

And color.

That’s Robert in the distance, talking to the clouds, I believe.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day … Night 2026.

T-shirt Tuesday

T-Shirt Tuesday: “Franklin’s Farm”

Posted on March 17, 2026 by Neal Saye

For the last few years, Robert and I have taken part in a wonderful program here in our home state of Georgia: Farm Passport.

Over 100 farms are involved, and Passport participants travel to as many as they like: “Passport travelers will discover where their food comes from, meet the people who grow it and see firsthand how diverse agriculture is across the state! With each visit, travelers can get stamps in their passports, and they can earn prizes. The love of exploring Georgia, supporting local farms and eating fresh is lived out when traveling with this passport.” Gfb.ag

Today we visited our first farm for 2026 (the program just started for the year): Franklin’s Farm in Statesboro GA. This farm is primarily known for their wonderful satsuma mandarins.

I love their Georgia fruits and vegetables T-shirt.

Cellpic Sunday: “Masquerade” 3/15/26

Posted on March 15, 2026March 15, 2026 by Neal Saye

Here’s my first post for Johnbo’s Cellpic Sunday blog category.

Daughter Amy and grandson Daniel in NYC over the weekend for Masquerade. An immersive Phantom of the Opera show.

From the opera’s website: “Step into the world’s most haunting love story in a new production of Phantom of the Opera. Masquerade – the world’s first immersive musical.”

I texted Amy and asked how it was. Her reply: “Amazing! Also they kept picking Daniel and me out to do little things. 😂”

Photos above taken with iPhone 16 Pro.

Coincidentally, Daniel played the part of Raoul in Savannah Children’s Theatre’s production of Phantom a few years ago.

The two photos above taken with iPhone 14 Pro.

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. HR all excited about his new Canon EOS R100 camera.

Can cameras really cost that much?!

2. Our great buddy Margaret being recognized at church for her 84th birthday.

3. The ability to AGE. (It is world’s better than the alternative.)

4. Chuckling at the important question in the bathroom at our Airbnb in Macon GA today:

5. The beauty of purple in Macon.

Early wisteria!

GOODness! The aroma.

I hope your weekend smells good!

Thursday Doors

Thursday Doors: My First Post

Posted on March 12, 2026 by Neal Saye

Today I’m joining in on the hoopla about doors on Thursday.

Robert and I are spending a couple of days in Macon Georgia. Walking to dinner in the historic district this evening, we came across these doors, all decorated for Macon’s upcoming Cherry Blossom Festival.
