Savannah Georgia

Woke up this morning and my coffee and a banana were waiting on my nightstand for me!  Marty was already at the carwash, he can't stand for Ruby to be dirty!

Carolyn & Me

So relaxing, took my time getting ready and we met Candace's mother Carolyn for breakfast at Showmar's.   Carolyn is such a nice person, she brought me a journal for me to use during our travels.  It is really helpful because sometimes at the end of the day when I am posting I forget some of the really important stuff.

After breakfast we headed south.  As we crossed the state line into South Carolina we noticed the price of gas $3.35 and just one block north in North Carolina $3.67.  Guess where we filled up? Yep, we filled up in North Carolina as we left Monroe!

Marty almost got his first ticket in South Carolina (other states already under his belt).  Don't you just hate it when the light turns yellow and you are in that "should I stop" or "should I go" mentality?  Well he went and there was a trooper right behind us!  He noticed the our tags and guess he figured he would spread some southern hospitality.  The best part is that we were on the phone with the office and hung up quite abruptly and left Candace hanging as to whether we were going to need bail money or not.  Decided to not call back for awhile and let her wonder.

Made it to Savannah and found a place to stay.  As usual we found an interesting place to stay.  We seem to find places with so many options, i.e., you can rent the room by the hour, but if you need to stay longer they also have low weekly rates!!  What a find!  Upon checkin I got to go into a 4x4 foyer and talk to the clerk thru glass about 6 inches thick!  When I inquired, she informed me that the neighborhood was safe.  Boy was I relieved!  For you enjoyment I posted some pictures.  Note the key, it is a key!  We even have a mirrored headboard! And the sheets are fresh from the package, still have the fold creases.  Oh and I almost forgot the 1/4 ply toilet paper!!  But enough, I know everybody hates a braggart!

After putting our stuff in our room we had to find a Walmart to get some more medicine, seems my nasty coughy, runny nose, sneezy yuk is back. I look like Rudolph with my red nose.   Then found a good bbq restaurant, yummy!

Going to spend the day tomorrow checking out Savannah.  After two days of driving we are both ready for some exercise.

Thanks for visiting, check back often and please leave a comment!

Enjoy the photos!
