Savann-ahhhhh...

Jeremy and I spent the weekend in Savannah, Ga., with our great friends, Larry and Deirdre. Here's a fun recap:

We began the night peacefully at Bernie's, where the enchanting sounds of kareoke magic pulled us in.



Soon, we couldn't help but join in the fun. Larry brought down the house with a horrible rendition of "I Wanna Come Over," by Melissa Etheridge. And by horrible, I mean FANTASTIC!


On Friday, we spent the afternoon walking and riding around town. We enjoyed a yummy lunch at Huey's on the Riverfront, and then went on a trolley tour. And, of course, a little more drinkin'!!



Next, we went on a haunted pub crawl. As you can see, the spirits were with us!

(OK, maybe the guy taking the picture was smoking... Who knows?)



Some of us handle our booze and ghosts better than others...



On Saturday, we had WAY too much fun at the Jepson Museum downtown. I was enthralled by the work of Philip Morsberger, an artist whose display of works representing the 1960s were incredible, particularly this one:

Hey, Let's Have Some Red Man! Depicting the trial of the Mississippi sheriff laughing at charges of violating the civil rights of three men murdered by the Klu Klux Klan.



We also had fun in the interactive part of the museum:



That night, we enjoyed our last evening in Savannah at the Moon River Pub, sampling their fine micro brews.



We ended our weekend with a wonderful picnic in Forsythe Park, complete with fried chicken and mashed potatoes from Paula Dean's restaurant, Lady & Sons. All told, it was a fantastic weekend, filled with great food, great friends, and incredible sites.
