Lighting the Way

St. Simons Island lighthouse has been lighting the coast since 1810. The current lighthouse was built in 1872 because Gen. Lee had the confederates blow up the original one so the Union couldn’t use it. 129 steps to the top but a great view. 

A Sweet Ride

Mom is getting a ride in Steve's new Porsche in 1975 as Scott looks on.

 

Forsyth Park Fountain

Forsyth Park is a green oasis in Savannah. Parts remind me of Central Park, with Spanish moss added. 

Ready, Set

Vala and Lowell are ready to jump in at Round Hill. These two love the water.
 

A Baptism

Adam helped put the holy water in the baptismal font for Colin's baptism. Colin received a quilt from the Colonial Church quiltmakers in honor of the occasion.

 

Mustashioed Coed

Several homes have photos like these, which I assume has to do with school, but this one has been adorned with a mustache from the outset. I don't think I'd want my daughter's photo on my lawn - seems unsafe.
 

The Doggie Bar

For the canines, plenty of cool water on these hot days. There is even have a solar light for nighttime patrons.
 

Out for a Drive

When you both have a steering wheel, there's no argument about who's in charge.
 

Parade Marshals

Participating in the Round Hill 4th of July parade brought back memories of Hayden and fellow guards leading the procession back in the day. Hayden on the job (below).

 

The Serpent and the Damsel

Never stop playing. Hayden had more fun with the statue than the kids. The metal of the serpent was quite hot to the touch, which deterred Adam and Vala.
 

4th of July Celebrations

 

We started the day with the Round Hill parade. Very festive.

 

 

 

Vala Is 2!

This little cherub is officially 2.

 

Who Needs A Hummingbird?

This little guy decided to take advantage of the water that protects the hummingbird syrup from the ants. Still haven't seen a hummingbird at the feeder.
 

Glory of Summer

The radiant colors of the lilies are a highlight of my summer garden.

 

Riding the Rails

Adam drove the train at Sar-Ko-Par Trails Park. He helped passenger Vala disembark.
