Recently, when Robert and I drove over to the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge, I fell in love with a series of very cool T-shirts featuring area animals and what we can learn from them. So I decided to feature one on each T-shirt Tuesday for a while.
Today, the Delightfully Dazzling Dragonfly.
Up close and personal with a friendly dragonfly down in Georgia’s Okefenokee Swamp south of us …
And coincidentally, yesterday Donna sent me a photo of a dragonfly she spotted on her car’s antenna …
With the dragonfly, may we appreciate this long summer day.
So this afternoon Robert and I enjoyed a Late Lunch of Smash-burgers at the Crispi Food Truck in front of local brewery Two Tides here in Savannah.
From their cool website.
Here’s HR negotiating the colorful stairs afterwards, sporting his expensive Braves jersey (don’t get me started), knee brace (long story) and little gay socks.
What? You can’t really see them and want a better look? Okay, no problem …
(I did a sneak photo after we got home.)
Well, after a long time getting down the stairs, we walked a bit in the cool and hip Starland District of Savannah. And we ran across this also cool and hip tattoo parlor/clothing boutique.
I love their … “entry requirements.”
If only every establishment in these United States of America could hold the same “entry requirements/blessings.”
HR’s cool pasta salad, with tomato and turkey sandwiches at lunch yesterday (The red wine, brown sugar pickled beets might have stolen the show.)And a very yummy summer salad at our favorite neighborhood bar hangout, Midtown Sports, here in Savannah.
2. Discovering and hanging out at the Smallest Church in America (or so it proclaimed) an hour or so south of us near coastal Darien, GA
HR loudly ringing the smallest church’s bell. (Fun fact: I am actually an ordained minister.)
3. Baked Beans.
4. Love rocks!
5. Bell peppers.
The trio were featured prominently in HR’s sweet and sour pork supper.
May you have a coloful, bell-ringing weekend ahead!
So I walked into our bathroom, an hour or so ago, in order to, well you know.
I started to sit down and saw this …
“Wait, what’s going on?” I thought, as I leisurely, then worriedly gazed at the curtained window. “Is this my bathroom?! Where AM I?”
“Is that an alien just outside my bathroom window? Look at his/her TALL hair!”
Terrified, I was ready to squeal, to yell for HR (Husband Robert- you know that!) to come help me, when I decided that, “No, let’s pull back the curtain. Kind of like with the Wizard of Oz.”
And then I realized.
HR had just put the pineapple in the bathroom window to catch some sun and ripen a bit more.

Today, the Awesome Alligator.
Okay, TIB (Truth in Blogging): I respect this animal, but am ridiculously scared of him/her as well.The alligator is common in my area of the country.They are found primarily in freshwater swamps and marshes, as well as in rivers, lakes and smaller bodies of water. My older daughter and her family live over on Skidaway Island here in Savannah. Alligators often sun themselves on the banks of lagoons bordering houses.
My first grandson Daniel was just a little one when I would carry him or push him in the stroller on walkways near some of those lagoons. I would always get so very nervous when I would see an alligator stretching out in the sun. I would pick up my pace.
This is the only type I can tolerate …
And even with a baby alligator, I look a tad disheveled and out of mental control.
Here are a few of Robert’s pictures of alligators from our travels near us. I am posting them with my eyes closed. So I hope you are able to see them.
Actually, some of the alligator’s advice is pretty sage. Although I can’t remember any of it, and can’t force myself to scroll back up to read it. You do that for me, please.
