ST. PAUL:

Seriously?
Walking along Bay Street near our place here in downtown Savannah, HR and I caught sight of a little green oval tucked into a planter

We walked closer.

And the universe spoke to us.

YOU ARE ENOUGH.
A beautifully encouraging message arriving at the perfect time.
I received its truth.
I hope you do too.
“Green”

Playing putt putt with grandson Gabriel.


So I was minding my own business this morning, waiting “patiently” in the car, while Robert did who knows what at a UPS store.
I looked out my passenger side window and saw this …

“Weeds,” I dismissively thought.
Then the sort of chubby one in the middle said to me, “Why are you judging us?”
And then that smaller one to the left said, “What gives you the right?“
Embarrassed, I looked again.

And then I saw my very favorite color,GREEN, beautifully rejoicing in the morning sun.
And I had to agree with so many other folks smarter than me …



Ouch!


1. Understanding why someone might decide to become a thief …

2. HR and me — renewing our vows at our church’s annual ceremony.



3. Believing that most people are at their core, good.
4. Back to the first Happy Bringer, the ability to savor chocolate.

5. The expression on grandson Matthew’s face as he was given his certificate announcing that he is now a part of the gifted program at his school.

(And Robert congratulating him.)
May this weekend bring you gifts of peace, health and joy.

“We”

A few odds and ends from Valentine’s Day 2023.
Taking a walk this morning near us here in Savannah, Robert and I came upon this neat little house.



They go all out every holiday. And I always look forward to their displays.

Those of you who follow my blog may remember that Robert is an MCG (Multiple Card Giver). I used to think it was odd that I would get more than one card for my birthday, etc., but now I kook forward to it.
My valentineS this year:

And open!



And here’s my card to HR:

(We were both obviously on sort of a gay theme this year.)



A Blooming Valentine-y February in Savannah …



I hope you’re having a LOVE-ly day.

TODAY SAVANNAH, GEORGIA TURNED 290 YEARS OLD!

“Referred to as “The Hostess City of the South,” Savannah is the oldest city in Georgia and has a long and colorful history that attracts millions of visitors each year. From cobblestone streets and public parks to some of the most unique Antebellum architecture of the South, Savannah is an old beauty that has aged with grace.” trolleytours.com

“Established in 1733 when General James Oglethorpe and 120 fellow passengers on the ship Anne landed on a bluff along the Savannah River, Oglethorpe named the 13th and final American colony Georgia after England’s King George II. Savannah became the first city of this new land.”

“Upon Oglethorpe’s foresight, the city of Savannah was laid out in a series of grids allowing for wide streets and public squares. Considered America’s first planned city, Savannah had 24 original squares with 22 still in existence today.”

Robert I live a few blocks from the bluff and just off Washington Square, the northeast-most of Savannah’s squares.
