A while back, I decided it was time to take a trip to Savannah and get a feel for the south. I had read all about it and I had seen specials and travel programs that focused on the area, but I had never seen the place up close. With my mind made up, I threw the bags in the car, activated the Indianapolis security systems and hit the road for a 771 mile drive into the heart of the south.
When I reached Savannah, all I wanted to do was sleep but there would be plenty of time for that later. The first stop was the Historic Savannah Theatre. There is really nothing that quite compares to a live performance and I was most certainly impressed with the caliber of performers that struck across that stage. Next, it was a quick stop at the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. I didn’t come to worship, but it did give me a chance to get up close and personal with the oldest Roman Catholic Church in Georgia.
And there were so many other historic places that I saw, but to name and talk about them all would fill an entire book. I highly recommend Savannah for the next time you need a vacation.
