Don't Hesitate, Travel Away.


I almost did not go on my recent trip (to north carolina and Georgia), because of "too many things to do." I thought it would interfere with too many things.
A change of pace... just seeing a new city, can be refreshing. (Of course the verdict is, I'm glad I went. The lesson is that what I lost in 'getting things done,' I made up for by seeing new things). If you have the chance to travel, just go.

The End.

Have a good Saturday,
Alice

Oh Savannah, Won't You Cry For Me? Cause I Come From Alabama With A Banjo On My Knee

Here it is again: I recently went to Savannah, Georgia. (No I did not come from Alabama. I have nothing to do with banjos, and have never associated myself with a banjo).

People seem to like tours in Savannah. I am not really a fan of taking tours when I'm on a vacation or trip. I'd rather just see the city for myself.
The person I was with wanted to take a tour, however, so that is exactly what we did.

The tour guide was excellent, and kept throwing in random facts about Savannah. Anyway, the tours seemed very popular.
So, maybe other tourists don't mind being 'touristy.'

I wanted to go, mostly, after having read the book Midnight In The Garden of Good and Evil. Also a movie!
In the book, there is a small part in the beginning where a character named Miss Harty talks about how leisurely, different, and Southern the city is.
The point: I feel honored to have visited this 'leisurely,' unique, and charm-filled city.

The End.
Blessing you, each and every reader.

In a grits and gravy kind of way,

What I Learned In Savannah Georgia


Operating at a slower pace, and having leisurely "squares" throughout the city, is not necessarily a bad thing.

THE END.

Thank you for reading.

Grits, Grits, Grits?

Grits are the official prepared food of Georgia.

I had the opportunity to go to Savannah.

The End.

Thank you.
