Remember in elementary school, the first theme of the year was “What I did on Vacation”? Katy and I took a much needed few days to visit our friend Jane on Tybee Island, GA.
Things I did on vacation (certainly not a comprehensive list and in no particular order):
- Itched and burned from tanning bed induced sunburn (Someone told me I should pre-sun for the beach. Thanks, Kelly.)
- Learned the difference between a swamp and a marsh
- Dipped my toes in the Atlantic
- Kayaked in the Marsh
- Toured Fort Pulaski
- Went to the Bonaventure Cemetery in Savannah
- Went to the Paula Deen store
- Lost my Flip, keys and books in the ATL airport
- Had fun singing and doing music with Jane
- Sang in a church choir with no rehearsal
- Ate truly amazing food
- Cooked truly amazing fresh seafood
- Discovered Blaze Foley
- Caught a mouse
- Let the mouse escape
- Ate at Wall’s Barbecue and reviewed it on Yelp!
- Contemplated climbing to the top of the Tybee light house
- Saw the set of the Miley Cyrus movie currently being made at Tybee
- Saw the “Bird Girl” statue from “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil”
- Sort of stuck to my diet
- Enjoyed the company of Jane and my wonderful fiance Katy
