Christmas in Savannah

We had a wonderful visit and Christmas in Savannah, staying with our sister-in-law Beth.  My dad was able to join us, too. 



Our only regret is that the wonderful Christmas snow that everyone wants kept us from driving up to NC to spend Christmas Eve and day with my daughters Nikki and Heather.  We were looking forward to that.

Smokey ajusted quickly to Beth's house --- low windows with squirrels and all sorts of birds in the yard.


Christmas shopping on Christmas Eve, a glorious Christmas Eve church service at Beth's church, Asbury Methodist (caroling afterward - dad and I went home - it was COLD), Christmas dinner with friends Ray and Randy, and an after-Christmas party at Beth's.


A few after Christmas excursions on Monday (like replacing Luke's broken cell phone) and back to the boat on Tuesday morning.  I've never seen Smokey so glad to be put on the boat.  Security of home, I guess.  She's stretched out in the cockpit, belly to the sun, purring and making little baby murr-sounds to herself.



Our plan is to see Bahama sailing friends Dee & Dave for dinner tonight.  The weather is perfect (right now) for an overnight run to St. Augustine, starting on Wednesday around 2 p.m. Florida may not be so warm right now, but it's gotta get warmer sooner or later!!!
