There is nothing like the
sound of the waves in my ears and the feel of the salt
air on my genuine Rockford Red Heel Socks. Tybee Island
beach was a wonderful respite from my busy schedule.

I could feel the spirits
coalesce around me as I gazed at the fountain in Forsyth
Park early one morning. The fountain, a focal point of
the historic district, was built in the mid-1800's as an
homage to the fountain at the Place de la Concorde in
Paris.

Here I pose in front of the
Pulaski Monument in Monterey Square. The monument is
named after General Count Casimir Pulaski, a Lithuanian
ex-patriot who bravely fought for his adopted country
during the Revolution and was mortally wounded in 1779
during the Siege of Savannah. In 1825, John Stevens wrote
that "the brave Pulaski who despairing of the cause
of liberty in his own country had . . . sacrificed his
life while contending for the freedom of ours."

I very much enjoyed visiting
the Telfair Art Museum, the oldest art museum in the
South.
