On Savannah...


Dear Daddy-O and K.___,

     After a rocky beginning I think I understand what you love so much about Savannah. After we refueled with a Seattle-Style dose of caffeine we drove out to Bonaventure. I thought the weather couldn't have been more cooperative (though it did cause Murray to comment that she was, "Sweating more than a morning of ZumbaWithIda."). 

     I wandered through the trees that sagged with the weight of Spanish-Moss and time and listened to the cicadas sound their warning call for a dark storm on the horizon. I wished for the sky rain and wanted most to find the headstones that had been changed by the bored soldiers in the Civil War. Instead, I found Gracie for you...She says hello and hopes you’ll come visit her yourself really soon.

      I love you.
