2/17/2014 Monday

Good evening to all!!  We had a short day of travel today!!!  We anchored only about 30 miles from Savannah last night so it was short trip into town today. We arrived at the city docks where we had stayed last year and they were under repair!!!  So we came on down a little farther and found another dock that we called and requested dockage for the evening!!  VERY expensive at $2.75 per foot, per night!!! WOW that's about a week stay at any Marina. We paid for one night but don't have to leave until 3 pm tomorrow so we decided to take off tomorrow around 3pm and go find a place to anchor out tomorrow night! 
So today we visited Savannah!!! Such a glorious town!!! If you have never spent any time here it is a must to put on your "Bucket List" !!! We spent 3 days here last year so lots of what we saw today was a repeat. Windy and a little chilly, I needed a sweatshirt most of the day. We walked about 3-4 miles just site seeing. We contacted Ken and Michelle on sailboat "Scallywag" that we ran into in Brunswick, they are coming tomorrow morning to spend some time with us and have lunch before we take off again.  We are looking forward to spending some time with them!! Just enjoying the town and the weather!!! I have attached a few pics I took today, just having fun!!!
Check in with me tomorrow to see what happens as we head home the next few days!!
Please pray for our safe travel!!! Love to all, Ms. Fran and Capt Rod 
Remember that FULL Moon I told you about in the blog last night? I went out and took this photo afterward !! It was amazing!!! Pic just don't show the magnitude!!!!

A new Vietnam memorial that was not here our last visit!!! Awesome!!! Soldiers Hat, gun and boots!

Another view!!   This rock is in the shape of Vietnam!!! It's sitting in a pool. 

These steps go from the water front to the city street!!! They are as steep as a ladder!!!

We saw this piece of furniture in an antique shop today!! You can purchase for you home or office for a mure $65,000!!! Look good on the boat HUH !!!!?? It bigger than my living room!!!!
