One of the values of my bus driving for the Sara Groves tours was getting a sense of how to get where in the various cities and towns we visited. So when we knew we had four days here in Savannah, Ga., we figured out how to make the best of our time here. Among the highlights of our visit to this beautiful city were a complete guided tour of historic Savannah, Georgia. Lots of history going back to the 1700's and the revolutionary war. Makes you appreciate what our forefathers went through to make this nation what it is. Without going into detail, just Google Savannah for the places to see and we probably saw it.
Also, this morning we celebrated Mothers Day as Marlene opened her cards and gifts and received telephone calls. We really enjoyed the worship and the pastor's Mothers day message at Southside Assembly of God. It turns out that the associate pastor is one of those first generation Christians -- so I am excited about getting his interview.
Following church, we decided to drive to Hilton Head Island, only 30 miles away. Our good friends Jim and Sandy Robertson have been going there for 7 partial Winters now and we can understand why.
Tomorrow we head for Beaufort, S.C. The weather has been acting up a bit, but it looks doable right now.

Hey you two! Great blogs, great posts. I asked Lisa for the URL, and she kindly obliged. It's been fun to catch up on your journey.
All the best - on the trip and on the research!

my sister and I toured Savannah a couple winters ago and instead of the bus tours we stopped at a gift shop, picked up all the postcards we could find with landmarks on them and then went on a scavenger hunt...it was a blast...what a lovely city! I'd go back in a heart beat.
