Traveling Still

It's Friday Morning, the Wedding - the goal of this trip - is early evening today. As I write this I am sitting on the balcony of our room that overlooks the Savannah River. FYI, Savannah is the fourth largest port in the U.S. We just watched a big container ship sail silently by.

We left Wilson, North Carolina yesterday morning and our first stop was in Smithfield, N. C- home of Smithfield hams - to the Ava Gardner Museum. The museum is very well done. She was born in this town. Very interesting. The rest of the day we drove, some on I95, and when Maureen got tired of being part of a moving parking lot, we would go on a secondary road. Her dad used to travel the same way.

Came over a beautiful bridge on Route 17 into the city of Savannah. We found our hotel and up to our room, hooked up with the brothers - they were at the Bohemia Hotel Roof. Cabbed over. I came back to the hotel about 9:00. Worn out from laughing.......and maybe a little too much wine.

Here we are in one of the most beautiful cities ever, and we are both tired of moving and are content sitting here overlooking the River, feet up, listening to a Miranda Lambert CD.
