Savannah, GA
Being self-employed it is REALLY hard for us to get away for a real vacation. By a real vacation I mean one that doesn't start on Friday after work, and end before Monday morning. We just decided to make it a priority to get away for a whole week this spring break. We spent the first part of the week in Savannah, GA. There are so many beautiful and historical places there. Of course we didn't get to see everything, so we will definitely be going back! And because we are food people, we ate ALOT of good food. Most notable ones in Savannah were Paula Deens, Uncle Bubbas Oyster House, and Cheddars! Yummy! Oh yea, almost forgot Five Guys Burgers and Fries!
We had to have a little photo shoot before we started sight-seeing!
Our friend Scott lives in Savannah, and he and his son Liam got to spend some time with us while we were there.
WWII Memorial at the Riverwalk
This was inside Kevin Barry's pub on the riverwalk. The entire second floor is a tribute to the military, police, and firemen past and present. This is a piece of an I-beam from Tower One of the World Trade Center.
This is the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. The pictures do not do it justice. It is breath-taking, and hard to believe that it was built in the early 1800's.
I'm only including a couple here, but surrounding the inside of the sanctuary were these sculptures depicting the life of Jesus. Thank you Jesus for Your saving grace!
Can you tell that Liam had to do everything he saw Austin doing? I only wish I could have gotten a pic of this precious little guy dancing to Drink a Little Drink, Smoke a Little Smoke! Check out Liam's Hooters shirt! I hear he has those Hooters girls wrapped around his little finger! LOL 
We also visited Ft. Pulaski, a Civil War era brick fort. The union army used new rifled cannons during a two day battle against Confederate forces at Ft. Pulaski.
It was pretty much over for the Rebs after the Union cannons hit the powder magazine. The Confederate forces surrendered two hours later.
I just loved these fish downspouts! Very unusual!

Even hundreds of miles from home, Austin can find some folks to play painball with!

This is just one of the MANY beautiful restored homes in Savannah.
