I love living in Savannah.
I love being from here. I am one
of those who came “back” after college (I read somewhere about how locals always make that comment). I love living in a town
where the tallest structure is a steeple. That is, until one of those big ships rolls down the river. I love knowing that when I go to the Publix
at Twelve Oaks that I will know someone.
I always look forward to talking to that person, whomever that may
be. I love that when I drive my children
to nursery school that we get to talk about the flowers blooming and the horses
driving the carriages. My children are
sure that all those horses are named “Lucky” and that they live at their
farm. When I tell people that I work for
my family business, TideWater Landscape Management, Inc., the reply I hear most
is, “Oh that’s your family’s business? I
see your trucks everywhere!” I love to
hear that. Savannah is wonderful.
This Saturday we have the SCAD Sidewalk Arts Festival. How incredible are those creations made from chalk? Do you think they use the same Crayola Container that we use at our house? Surely not...
Or, how about Savannah Fashion Week! The fashion show is tonight! I will tell you my friends, Heather Kaney
Burge and Jennifer Miller Paige know how to make girl feel like she is in Paris
or Milan! How awesome that our little
city is hosting such beautiful design and creativity! Thanks to the many fashion folks who make this
event such a success.
For all you golfers, The 2013 Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf
is being played right now across the river on Hutchinson Island. Golfers like Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player are
wowing the crowd as I type.
Lastly, on the music scene, we welcome Betsy Kingston and The
Crowns who will be playing at Mojos Juke Joint located on River Street this Friday night. We have a Savannah girl coming back for a Savannah
show. Good music. Good vibes.
So, this weekend our city of Savannah is going to be a
happening place. Enjoy!
