I am on leave for four days before heading overseas and not seeing my family for another four months. Julie and the boys (and my parents) came to Savannah to help me relax. I was so glad to get to see Julie again. I miss her most of all. Savannah is a great city. I have wanted to see it for a long time. There is a lot written about it in city planning circles and I have wanted to see how special it is for myself. It hasn't disappointed. In fact the longer I am here the more I am falling in love with it. I have one more day to just go downtown and relax and enjoy it with my family. We'll just find a park and sit and play and have a pic-nick and then walk around enjoying all the shops and old houses.
So far we have been to the beach, seen Fort Pulaski, toured a tall ship, eaten lots of good seafood, and taken a side trip to Atlanta to send my parents home and to fix my iPod. It has been a good vacation and although I didn't get to go home and sleep in my own bed, it has been good for me.
