Savannah

RedGate Stables Plantation RV Campground.
 Tybee Island
Tybee Island they sail in the inland
waterways or Atlantic.
Shells growing on pillars on dock,



Ended up spending a week here and could easily stay a month as this campground and Savannah are ideal.  Spent the day at the riverfront.  Mike was waiting for a big ship to go down the Savannah River but only saw tour boats.  We didn't get to Paula Deens but the food was great.
wow and the guy was on the back.  What does he do for a living?
The riverfront had 15 info-posters along the
 riverfront and Mike read them all.
I shopped the riverfront streets
but all I bought was Georgia pralines
made at the shop.  $17.95/#.
So much for gifts, we've been snacking
on this irresistable treat.
I had alaska and snow crab and made a mess
again, but so worth it.



WWII memorial. Even the grates reflected that.



The waving lady would come down here daily for 44 years.  Our tour guide said it was for a long lost love hoping he would come home by ship.  Others said she greeted all the ships to welcome them.  My bet is there was a man involved. 
750 000 gallons of water flows out of Savannah river to the Atlantic daily.  The first steamboat, named Savannah traversed to Europe in 1813,  Pres. Madison came down for the dedication.  This bridge was built in the 1970s, adding to another bridge farther upstream.  We took it to Hilton Head.
