Savannah, GA Blog 2 of 3 – The Lily Book Tour continues…
Howllo Fellow Basset Hound and the Lily Book Tour in Savannah, GA lovers. Savannah is so cool and we will return to this amazing city. The folks who live in Savannah are so proud of their city and it shows. The first thing I did after a fantastic nights sleep was to open those huge old doors to what we called the Southern Ladies room.
It was shockingly cool on this Savannah morning – I actually had to look twice at the temperature. 51 degrees??? In Savannah??? In June??? It was really cool in the room but I loved it. Daisy Lynn was enthralled by this place…
She thought her gully blanket felt so good!!!
I was so worried about the weather on this trip. None of us do well in the extreme heat and I thought we would miss a lot by not being able to get around but forget that!
We got around!!!
First off a little bit of sniffing in the Southern Ladies room…
OK, it will do…
We decided to take off after breakfast and explore our area square. As you may know Savannah is made up of squares – each one as wonderful as the next. Reynolds Square was about 2 minutes from our Inn. AMAZING… We adopted Reynolds Square as our own.
You can see the famous Old Pink House right behind me. This is where our pack had reservations for dinner this night. They have an outside area which is dog friendly. We decided to stroll over and confirm our reservations. Just 3 girls on a stroll in the square!
I had packed a stunning pink snood for Daisy Lynn to model in front of the Old Pink House so I can put it in the boutique later. I think I got some good pictures of it. I will save those for the listing…
The Old Pink House used to be a red brick house way back when. Then stucco came into vogue and the owners at that time had the whole exterior finished in white stucco. After a few steamy Savannah summers the red brick bled into the white stucco and VOILA – The Olde Pink House was born. As I was taking this picture a family walked by and I heard a little boy say, “yep, it’s old and it’s pink…” Gotta love those summer family vacations…”
After we finished the model photo shoot we wanted to see if Daisy Lynn was allowed on the ever so familiar trolley tours… They welcomed her with open arms and it was in my open arms she parked her caboose!
I think more people were taking pictures of her than the historic sites we were passing. Too funny! That lace ear was flying and the good people on vacation were waving!
Here Jim Williams’ mansion. Remember I was telling you that we were listening to Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil as we arrived in Savannah? Well, here we are passing Monterey Square.
After we got off the Trolley we decided to find a light bite to eat and a glass of wine. I thought I had spotted the perfect place the night before in the alley across from our Inn. We decided to saunter over and take a look see…
More looking and seeing later in our next blog 3 of 3 Savannah, GA…Love, Cat, Grandma, Daisy Lynn, (Chaps and Emma ATB laying on Old Pink Clouds…)
