Today was our day to go to Savannah....the weather is mixed.  
Joe rode his bike in and we met him in town later.

It had started to spit a bit when we first arrived but figured how bad could it get???

Apparently BAD!!! It rained so hard it was crazy....and yes...we got soaked...
luckily it's warm so it wasn't too bad...

They have this 30 or so acre park that is long and narrow and runs through town.  
There are fountains and benches and statues all over the place.

Still soaked here...took a few hours to dry off!

The buildings are all just so beautiful and old and amazing looking...
it just goes on and on...


And then more parks...it's really nice the way they are mingled throughout the downtown area.

And oh so many churches...


Then we finally happened upon the Waterfront area...with brick and cobblestone walls and roads...
The Brick walls and embankments were built back in 1840 to protect against the erosion that was happening on the waterfront and to allow access to the area....now so many years later it's a gathering place for many.






And this is the busiest Port in the USA...always so much to see....these things are just SO BIG!!!




We headed back uptown to try to find a Bar with some music and happened upon a mini-car show.


Is this not the brightest car you have seen??



Oh these are words to live by!!!

Can't seem to get enough pics of these homes and buildings....



And this big fat kitty....apparently....nobody really knows who owns her....maybe many people by the looks of how chubby she is!!! oh my...

It's been windy for quite some time....like weeks...this morning it's pretty calm...but they are calling for more wind in the afternoon..... Decided to ride our bikes into St. George and check it out...really small casual little beach city... More white sandy beaches....this time with lots of shells...spent a good hour shell hunting... We saw lots of crab holes in the ground...apparently they are called "ghost crabs" and they only come out at night and they are almost transparent.. I was so excited when I spotted this shell.....but somebody was inside... and this baby crab on the outside!!! They have these really cute "tiny narrow rental homes".... these are the first skinny homes we have seen!! Saw dolphins in the distance for the first time today....super excited....George has to "make me move one" ....because I could stay all day and watch them... Biked out on the fishing bridge....this one goes out qui...

Today is the day....we must leave New York....it`s been great... it`s been expensive....and it`s time to go... Gracie may have wanted to visit this place...but no Dog Spa for her... Today is also the day we will part paths with Brother Joe...we will head West....because we must....he will have another direction...we will miss him....has been a great time travelling with him. It took us almost an hour to wind our way out of Jersey City...it was raining...and I swear Roxanne had us going in circles....there was detour after detour...and some ridiculously narrow streets.....but we made it......we had no idea where we were...the skies were grey and dismal and we just seemed to be going around and around..... And then this crazy horrible sign appeared...WTF....WEST!!! What is that!!!! It wasn`t long before we left the busy streets for rolling hill of trees...it is just so green and so hilly.... I love this one...it`s the first we have ever seen...... ...

It's a pretty fitting day to leave the beach...it's raining....it's still warm...but it's still raining.... Taking a ferry today instead of dealing with the traffic...won't take any time off our trip...but will take the miles off our trip...cost wise...not too sure...but if it can eliminate a few hours on the road in the city...it's worth it. This bird decided to build a nest in the busiest place ever!!! Right at the Ferry Terminal... And all along the way....Dophins.....Yay!! I will never tire of seeing them playing in the water! So before long we are on the New Jersey Turnpike.... which just means .....toll....after toll.....after toll.... and you have no idea which lane you are supposed to be in... Nightmare! Marty!!!.... You will love this....... You know all those American dimes and nickels I was saving.... Finally had a chance to use them.... Oh the look on his face when I gave him $6.00 in dimes and nickels!!! W...
