St. Helena's Church

I am still on vacation in Beaufort, South Carolina.  I really do miss Geneva, but today, as I walk through these tree-lined streets, I am daydreaming about perhaps one day writing two part-time blogs that celebrate my favorite places on Earth.  Like Geneva Daily Photo, Beaufort Daily Photo has a lovely ring to it too, I think.

This is the of steeple St. Helena's (Episcopal) Church in downtown Beaufort, South Carolina, and the brick wall surrounding the adjoining cemetery.  The church was established in 1712, and the first church building erected in 1724.  The congregation will celebrate its tricentennial in 2012.

Uncle Bubba's

A quick side trip to Uncle Bubba's in Savannah, Georgia for lunch.  Shown here are the Shrimp and Grits I ordered, and they were GOOD!  I think this may well be my new favorite thing to eat, but I will need another bowl to be absolutely sure.

We had a terrific afternoon together, and especially enjoyed visiting with Uncle Bubba, who checked in on us while we were dining, and spent some time chatting with us in the parking lot outside.  I hope he remembers to tell his sister, Paula, we said hello!

Life's A Beach

Still on vacation, but missing you, Geneva!  After a day spent on the beach, the girls and their cousins have collected a king's ransom in sand dollars, shown here drying as the sun sets.
