TK! Rest! Coast!

Tim A. Cummins @ 9:45 pm  

Kathy and I finally got away from town to rest. I sure needed it! We left for Savannah on Sunday morning and just got back this evening.
e

We rode along the old Tybee RR trail.

I especially enjoyed blowing BIG bubbles on the beach. I blew one long tubular bubble 43 foot. Yow!
s
s
Friday morning I got up before sunrise to greet the sun and get one final chance to blow bubbles, especially when there weren’t a lot of kids running around popping them.

The flowers were beautiful, especially at Bonaventure Cemetery.

It was beautiful, but the sand gnats were ferocious.

I always check on my grave. I had an interesting talk with one of the staff at Bonaventure. He said that this grave, “Was a mystery.” Yes it is. I find it interesting how many people leave objects on the grave stone, which has no markings at all.

I rode into Savannah. One of the most beautiful cities in the world! I enjoyed visiting the “Jingle Bell” church. This is where I was ordained! It used to be the Savannah Baptist Center. The Unitarians bought it from us.

My favorite cathedral in the world is St. John the Baptist in Savannah. No trip is complete without visiting it and admiring the stained glass. Fabulous.

I always light candles for my children.
s

River street is always fun.
s

I love the Historic District. Gorgeous.

I went into the Customs House this trip. They had tigers on display.
s
The skins had been confiscated.

I ate at Clary’s. One of my favorites for breakfast!
s
It’s in the movie, “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.”
s

K and I had fun riding our bikes all over the island.
s
s
s
Sure beat having to find a place to park the car. Beautiful!

s
s
s
s
We averaged over 6 miles a day. One day I rode over 15 miles. Ouch.
s

On our way home, we drove around Pooler, GA. Our house was gone, but our neighbor’s was still standing.
s
They put a new house on our lot.
s

GREAT to spend time with Kathy!

We came back to the ATL in powerful thunderstorms and rain. It reminded me of my new scripture memory project. I’m working on Psalms 77:10-20. “The clouds poured down water. The skies resounded with thunder. Your arrows flashed back and forth.”

Great to be back home. Looking forward to and Outreach Event in Gainesville on Sunday afternoon.

Is the footprint up or down?
