The Pirate House, Savannah, Georgia
“When we arrived in Savannah, we asked around for one of the best places in town to eat. We received several referrals to this place – The Pirate’s House. Not only did we hear that the food was incredible, but a few people said that it had a ghost story or two associated with the place.”
It even looks spooky in broad daylight! But the best was still to come. The waitress gave the diners permission to roam around the areas of the restaurant that had yet to open. And they managed to snap some very interesting photos.

Today might be the perfect day to bundle up if need be and find your “Rainbow Row”. Every town has an interesting neighborhood. You …read more

Okay, this is going to be short and sweet. I’m using an unfamiliar laptop with a mouse and no mousepad. Frustrating doesn’t even come close. Anyway, I plan on checking in on a regular basis to let you know what cool accessories that I have found.
