Pink Saturday and the winner!

The time has arrived to announce the winner of my 100th follower celebration! 




Here is Prince O doing the honors...







Congratulations to....... 


Diann @ The Thrifty Groove!!!  Diann is the winner of a $25 Target gift card! 


Her blog is really cool!  Go check it out! 




Thanks to all who entered and to all of the new followers!  Now I can work towards my 200 goal. 

I am back from moving the princess.  We were so busy getting her situated that I actually didn't have time to cry.  Then I was too tired to cry on the way home.  I miss her already. But I'm holding up!

The dr has been very nice to me lately.  I guess he knows all of these things like moving, selling the house, finding a new place, princess cutting the apron strings, etc are putting a little wear and tear on my emotions.  So for no reason, he brought these home for me...




This is my lovely Pink Saturday.  




 My flowers may not keep but the dr.? Well he's a keeper!

Bonaventure in Pink

May sound kind of creepy, but Bonaventure is a cemetery in Savannah.  Beautiful live oaks, flowers and monuments abound. The historic cemetery has been around since the 1800's. One of Savannah's most famous people, Johnny Mercer, is buried here.  He's the songwriter who wrote "Moon River" in 1961.  He requested to be buried here before he died in 1976.  
(I "borrowed" these pics from a friend.  She's a great photographer.)  Posting all of this pink to Beverly's How Sweet the Sound, Pink Saturday, Show N Tell over at My Romantic Home,  and Inspiration Friday at Melissa's The Inspired Room
 One of my favorite things about Savannah trees is the moss which hangs from them.  Did you know where the term "Don't let the bed bugs bite" came from?  People used to make mattresses out of the moss until they found out there were critters which bit them at night.



Love the beautiful monuments.  Pure art.




A little bridge over water, so dreamy...



 Nature at best...




How would you like to take your final ride in this?
 Farewell...

Savannah, part 3 Landscape-the azaleas

And here's the real beauty of Savannah.  Downtown is just about my favorite place in the world, well, I haven't been to Paris yet.  

Spring is the best time of the year to visit.  Can you spell a-z-a-l-e-a-s?  They're in abundance!  Every city square, every park, every sidewalk.  
In honor of all the pink ones, I'm posting to How Sweet the Sound for Pink Saturday!



Lots of weddings taking place in Forsythe Park that day. 
 Aren't the trees magnificent?  2 more posts to come on the beauty of this place!
