First order of the day is to relax, unwind, find a good football game to watch.
Can't spend all day inside. Too much to see. Things to do. Places to go. One of my favourite things to do is to go for a walk in the woods.
I didn't see any deer on this trip but I did come across some wild turkey. With Thanksgiving just around the corner, you would think that the turkeys would be staying out of sight.
Unfortunately, we didn't take pictures of all our activities... such as biking and swimming, but here's an action golf shot
As I recall, Genya got a par on this hole but Stephen didn't.
Golfing could be a dangerous sport in the South. I was not happy that I was this close to an alligator when I had to tee off.
Did a little touring on this trip and spent a day on Jekyll Island in Georgia... very pretty. We'll probably go back there.
On another day, we took a boat trip from Hilton Head Island to Savannah. I expected to see beautiful mansions lining the coastline, but this was pretty much the view on the entire route:
Had a lovely lunch and then walked around the historic downtown area of the city.
We didn't take a carriage ride but the horses were cute.
If you've never been to Savannah, the city is laid out on a grid and every few blocks, there are public "squares"- places to sit and relax and enjoy the view. If you remember the movie "Forrest Gump", the part where Tom Hanks is sitting on a bench eating chocolates was filmed at one of these squares.
Savannah is full of these trees.
As a point of interest, Savannah is the fourth largest container port in the United States.
This was not our boat.... just one that we passed on the Savannah River.
The South is a great place to visit.... y 'all come down now.
Lifestyles of the ......
