Touring Savannah with Grammy!!

We have had a WONDERFUL time touring Savannah as a family of seven...Grammy included :-). Over the last couple of days, we have done a couple of tours of the downtown area and parts of town where Paula Deen has made history over the last few years. It is such a delightful, old-fashioned town and we have had a special, memory-making time here in Savannah. I'm so thankful for my mama coming to visit...it has been so fun having her with us...a wonderful time of refreshment for me!!

One of the MANY beautiful, antique buildings in Savannah.
 

The park where Forrest Gump sat as he shared his box of chocolates and told his life story!!
 

Love these colonial-style brick buildings!!
 

The magnificent St. John the Baptist Cathedral in downtown Savannah...absolutely gorgeous!!
The inside of the cathedral!
 

The fountain in Forsyth Park
 

Totally love these paths, lined with Spanish moss draped live oak trees!!
The Whitefield chapel on the Bethesda Boy's Home that was founded by the Englishman George Whitefield. It was originally an orphanage and now it is a school and home for boys.
 

A cute bridge leading to the chapel.
 

The home of Paula Deen where it all began...her "Bag Lady" lunch delivery service and then ultimately her "Lady and Sons" restaurant then eventually her own cooking show and southern-cooking empire!!
