My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. Swimming grandchildren.
2. Fresh summer field peas! Oh my GOODness.
3. The prickly beauty of Red Roses.
4. Air conditioning. (That really should be Number One. )
5. “My” Square, Washington Square, near us— which is a sort of ward/neighborhood outdoor living room. (Savannah‘s historic district has 22 beautiful squares.)
May you have a picture perfect weekend ahead!
(Or at least a little rest.)
You know you’re getting old when you get invited to this …
(Ex-wife Donna and I graduated from incredibly beautiful Berry College in Rome, Georgia way back in 1974.)
At the same time, you’re out in your also-incredibly beautiful Savannah Square reading this …
Ho hum. Life goes on.
With beauty all around.
My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. A terrific cast iron skillet breakfast at one of our favorite local eateries here in Savannah, J Christopher’s …
2. My new cow.
3. Air conditioning! (And it makes me sad and a bit privileged to realize that everyone does not have this luxury. Maybe a lot privileged.)
4. Beautiful views from our hotel room last weekend.
5. Basil lemonade!
May you have a beautiful summery weekend!
My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. Incredible raw oyster spread at my favorite local oyster bar, Sorry Charlie’s, here in Historic District Savannah.

5. Summer blackberries!
May your weekend be a berry, berry good one.
And at home …
My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

And getting famous ….

MARVELING!
The incredibly aromatic blossoms of Jasmine are beginning to say their goodbyes here in historic district Savannah.
I will miss them sorely, although their stalwart greenery will stay to keep guard.
Awakening me from my sadness and reminding me that all is not forlorn, along comes Hydrangea, seemingly popping up everywhere I walk, especially this cool Monday morning.
One of the joys of living in downtown historic district Savannah is that the walks NEVER get old. And are ongoingly (Is that a word?) beautiful.
The other day, Robert had a chiropractor appointment nearby, so I went with him, but then took the opportunity to walk around that particular little neighborhood.
Here’s a sampling of what I saw.
My favorite house I came across:
And look at its side yard!
And here’s a little place, still with a bit of character.
Okay, HR’s finished. Gotta go.
