Last Batch of Random Savannah Photos
We’ve said it before, and we’ll repeat ourselves again: Savannah is a photographer’s dream.
SCAD – The Savannah College of Art and Design
CAD was only established in 1978, so it’s a relatively new entity in Savannah. But it has made its presence felt.
The Schnitzel Shack of Rincon (via Darmstadt)
The nearest place bore the tongue-twisty name of Schnitzel Shack, and was a half-hour away in a town called Rincon (rhymes with Lincoln).
Old Sheldon Church
The ruins of the Old Sheldon Church are found down a tiny road, in a forest of towering oaks draped in Spanish moss.
The Inescapable Influence of The Book
Before we moved to Savannah, me, Jürgen and four-year-old Xiao Liang of Taiwan were the only three people on Earth who hadn’t read Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, by John Berendt. And now, noble Xiao stands alone. Jürgen and I have buckled down and read “The Book.”
Happy 2011 in Savannah
As 2011 rolled in, we had some things to celebrate… mainly, the fact that we still had another month in Savannah!
Wright Square
We always loved passing through Savannah’s Wright Square – there is always something going on.
Franklin Square
Like the lost squares of Liberty and Elbert, Franklin Square had been a victim of urbanization, but was fortunately restored in the 1980s.
Alex Raskin Antiques
Alex Raskin Antiques is a must-visit, whether you’re in the market for antiques or just curious. The store offers a fascinating array of wonderful and strange pieces
Whitefield Square
On Habersham and Wayne, Whitefield was one of the final squares to be laid out in Savannah, in 1851.
Pulaski Square
Pulaski Square is devoid of monuments; there’s not even one honoring its namesake (Pulaski’s obelisk is in Monterey Square).
Bluffton, SC — Almost a Homecoming
There are actually two sides to Bluffton, and the one in which we spent the day was the old part. The “new city,” built up and around the highway, is where the more usual businesses can be found, and is much busier.
