Kit and Carol on the Road

Someone told us today that they have to have at least a week of winter here to kill the mosquitos and deer ticks. This is it. January is their dead month and lots of things are closed. (We also discovered that restaurants on Tybee are closed as well after walking a mile to eat at a fine fish restaurant tonight. )

We did the trolley tour in Savannah and walked some and visited the fine fine house of Juliette Low's father in law. Among many things, Savannah is the "home" of the Girl Scouts. It is also the home of Paula Deen who we have never heard of but she seems to be someone important to the local scene. We ate at her restaurant. The photo above is some of many wonderful houses. Riding on the trolley you can't take photos or I would have had tons of house pictures. The photo in the middle in some old geezers on the "Forest Gump bench". This is where he sat in the beginning of the movie, eating chocolate and telling his life story.

The photo at the top is back on Tybee. Coming back from the beach, I snapped this photo of the height of possible hurricane storm surges. Most of the island would be wiped out with a 5.
