Talking About it Tuesday/Savannah, Georgia ~ September 10, 2024

 Happy Tuesday! I went on a weekend trip to Savannah, one of the most beautiful cities!

I decided a few days prior to join Brook on her back to school move in weekend. 

We had a 9 1/2 hour drive plus a quick stop at Buc-ees. We drove 3 hours of 2 lane highways to avoid driving through Atlanta during rush hour Friday afternoon traffic.

Once we got unpacked at her new townhouse, I drove to a friend's apartment for a visit. I have an old friend who lives there & she stored a few of Brook's bags over the summer. It was great to get a quick visit with her.

The next morning, my father in law had come to Savannah to drop off a few more things they stored for Brook over the summer. We had breakfast with him then he drove back to Charlotte. 

Brook & I went antique shopping with her roommate & her mom.

There were these cool first class seats from TWA dated to 1972 in the antique store.

There was a cute soda shop inside this store.

There were so many beautiful doors & windows too.

We went to a restaurant & saw this Memphis sticker!

That evening, I took a walk with roommate's mom & it was nice to get to know her.

Here are a few pictures along our walk.

Sunday was a rainy day, so we stayed in until mid afternoon.  We went to run a few errands and then Brook and I went to a local church that evening.

So many little stories happened at this church, but here are 2 that confirmed we were meant to be there at that time:

1.  Elvis gospel music was playing over the speakers when we walked in the church.  I kid you not.

2.  I got to meet Harrison Scott Key!  He is the author of 3 books, with his most recent one being his most known one, "How to Stay Married, the Most Insane Love Story Ever Told".  He was a guest on the Big Boo Podcast and several others as well.  He has also written "The World's Largest Man" and "Congratulations, Who are You Again?"

After church, Brook and I ate at CAVA.  I really like this place, but we don't have one here.

Monday morning, Brook took me to the airport, but before we left, we took a few pictures. Here is roommate's mom, me, Brook, and roommate. They live on the west coast, so I learned a lot about their different way of life.  

I am so, so thankful I decided last minute to come on this trip with my daughter!

Here are these girls are on their first day of school, junior year of college!

Have y'all ever seen anything like this?  This was at a store in the airport. 

I made it home and turned right around to go to book club.  It was good to join again this month and eat dinner together with others.  

Now back to work today!  Hope you have a great day!
