Bloody Marys,Spanish moss and Sweating in Savannah.

Blue skies, 80 degrees and less then 100% humidity, sounds like a great  day to visit savannah. Crossing the bridge from Hilton head , a right turn to Blufton and rural South Carolina is in front of us in all its southern spender.

Toe dipper machine!

so what’s nice about savannah, according to one shop-owner, the people are crazy which is a plus, you can drink on the street , not outta glass but out of plastic . There is a well shaded square at about every city block. Old oak with luscious moss draped on them. Fountains galore and the ghost of Kevin Spacey walking the streets. We took a leisurely stroll down Bull street, The main , non touristy , street cutting the city in two equal halves. Beautiful old antebellum houses, gardens of eden and a square park every other block. Here are some photos.
