Can anyone tell me where that little mouse went? Must be close, I smell catnip!


I thought my day was truly off to a bad start! Waking up late for starters, but I still got my cup of joe in my favorite mug. Somehow we needed to get a decent breakfast before grandkid babysitting duty at noon. What would be delicious and quick?
Suddenly, an Epiphany!

Just the day before while getting our daily walking steps in we stumbled The Grey Market Savannah, lunch counter and market.

Off we headed, across downtown Historic Savannah. Found decent parking and as we walked through the door, to our surprise, the place was packed. Counter full my spirits sank! My countenance went sour! I was not a happy camper. With the prospect of spending the next unknown number of hours with three little kids, no breakfast. I wanted, no needed a “do over”!
I checked the parking app on my phone, 20 minutes out of the 30 paid for had expired. Another 30 to 45 minutes seemed necessary. Just then Neal spied a couple paying at the counter and we swooped in before the seats could be taken. A little too quickly for to waitress who politely asked to clean our spot.

Coffee poured into cup, breakfast hash ordered, bacon crispy, disaster averted! So pleasant was the conversation with our waitress, so delicious was the locally sourced foods ( made in house). Kudos were promptly given to the cook who worked tirelessly churning our meals, bagel sandwiches all while rotisserie chickens and pork loin rotated in the background.








Oh how I love having breakfast at a lunch counter!

Excerpt: Sacred Hearts’ Vows

Interspersed with shadowy memories, the blades of grass blowing in the wind. I find you desolate and without a weathervane, no one to direct you and...

Over your head!

Appreciate the moment. Rest in the moment. The power of now! Enjoy now! Now is the only moment we truly have!




A portrait captures a moment that’s gone forever; they are impossible to reproduce. Street Photography: Shavers Booksellers. My goal in this series is to create a really awesome frame of people existing because they allowed me time to share their world.
The year is 2018 and I’m in a bookstore. Yes, you heard me correctly. There are actual brick-and-motar bookstores and yes, people still frequent them. Occasionally you may even find someone reading. Believe it or not some of these fine folks allowed my to snap their pic as long as they could get to reading.


Today I’m not in a Barnes and Nobles Booksellers, I fancied the little known or locally beloved, depending on who you ask, Shavers Booksellers located in Historic District Savannah, Georgia. I like this quaint little bibliopole just a short walk from my home downtown. Tiny passages and nooks crammed with all manner of literature and such, even comfy chairs and couches to nestle in while you are lost in that ghostly southern gothic novella. No surprise to some but it was to me, there being the small yet stocked tea room.




Entertain yourself or bone up on your history while you’re here. Shavers is known for having the most books on Savannah past and present. They also specialize in hard to find volumes about the Civil War.
Book signings, book clubs for every type of reader, friendly staff have kept residents and visitors coming back for over 40 years.
