Greetings from Savannah Georgia

Saturday was beautiful after the fog lifted.  We took the dogs, Millie  and Miss C, to the ocean for time to run and play.  Because of the fog, the beach was empty so we let the dogs off the leash and they had a great time as seen in the video.  In the afternoon we went to Jacksonville Beach Pier with our friends to watch the surfers.  At first sight I thought there were about 40 large black birds in the water but then I realized I was looking at wetsuits.
For dinner we went to a fish market nd had the best fresh blackened grouper.  But the day is not over yet.  Sharon was able to get two tickets to Jeanne Robertson, a nationally recognized humorist and former Miss North Carolina.  At age 71, she entertained us for almost 2 hours in 4inch spiked heels.  We laughed nonstop.  The 'boys' went to see the movie Interstellar.

We were out way past our bed time but we made it to church today.  We have found the best church!  Father Tony even recognized us from when we attended a few months ago.  The music is so uplifting.   It is both traditional and contemporary.  We were in church from 10:30 till 12:15.  Can you imagine a service that long.  There were many young children and people of many colors.

After church we headed to Savannah with no reservation.  We found the military base campground but there was no camp host.  We found out that this camp must have reservations...no drop-ins...contrary to what our research had stated.  So, we are parked in what may or may not be a reserved spot.  And we may or may not get a knock on the door and we may or may not have to move before morning.

Tomorrow we will enjoy the town of Savannah and hopefully have good pictures.

Peace and Joy,   Barbara

Oh....the boat will close on Monday.  Great news that will allow us to travel without the worry of the care and maintenance of our boat.
