HAPPY 4TH OF JULY

Happy Independence!

Let's see...we've actually done something worth reporting so hold on to your seats! It's not that exciting, but here we go!

Friday the 30th...Greg ended up working at Savannah Blues, possibly his last night? We'll see what happens once he comes back from WI. He didn't get home until 6am, so he was pooped out and slept in saturday. That was the end of his official first week back on the job...it went well, and he was able to put in overtime too. So far he is enjoying it! Saturday, ran some errands during the day and Greg didn't work that night so we actually did something! :) First we started at the Caledonia, it's a British based pub that's only been open for a couple months. No food there, but a couple had a dog named Nancy (teehee, some of you might get it!) tied to the pool table. So then we went on to the Crystal Beer Parlor and it's OLD. Greg decided he didn't want to eat there, not sure why...so we had a beverage and then moved on. We decided on trying Fiddler's...something new to add to the experience. We weren't too impressed tho. I had a crab cake samich and it was eh and the fries were blah. So don't worry, we won't take you there. Greg had a Black & Bleu Burger and said his was good...the medium rare was pretty rare in the middle, good for those that like it to moo!

After din-din we walked around River Street for awhile...there was a gajillion people and it was hot. Ugh. We meandered around and then eventually went home.

Let's see, Sunday...did some good couch potato action and then eventually headed out to Moe's for some lunch and then stopped at Publix to pick up food for dinner. I had already picked up corn-on-the cob the other day so we needed a compliment food. We went for all the glory and did our first round of Crab Legs at HOME! Oh heavens-to-betsies, it was deeeeee-licious!!! Greg was a little skeptical of trying it, but I think I talked about it enough the past couple months and was he glad he changed his mind! And they were on sale, extra bonus.


And here's what Porter does while we eat...I can't help it he sows down his food too fast!


After dinner we walked down to River St (we drove saturday night). We stopped at McDonough's for hydration on the way. It's close to where I work. Then continued on our way. Oh yes, our main point of this journey was to get pictures of the big boats...well, it was dark of course and I did what I could! Which wasn't much, no pictures yet...have to go in the daylight.

After walking around and visiting with people and one boxer girl that could've been Porter's baby sister we headed to City Market (the area where Greg works.) We checked out the new Wild Wings, it was cool, but didn't eat, can't spoil the afterglow of crab legs! There was a band outside (I think someone is playing there every sunday) so we hung out and took Greg's picture at his post.


Georgia law: Alcohol Serving establishments can not be open on sunday unless they serve food. Hence the closed doors of Savannah Blues and other establishments on sunday. No Alcohol Sales On Sunday! Cant' even buy stuff at grocery stores or gas stations. But if you're an eaterie, have at it! Man, someone has a lot of time on their hands to get that detail on the populations and technicalities of hours! Effingham County is a DRY County (north west of us I believe).

And then we walked home on the lighted streets of Savannah safe and sound. Monday morning came and we all went to work! Tonight there are fireworks out on Tybee Island, but we're not sure if we want to deal with all the traffic. It's a pain just on the weekend! Plus Greg isn't home yet and it's 6:30 already. So we'll probably wait for tomorrow and go down to River Street for those fireworks. Yay!

That's about it! OH WAIT!

Someone walked into work this morning, asked for Me, I said that's me and she said I was supposed to ask for you...and I said for what? And she said for work. And I said, ooooh, I'm supposed to be training you? and she said yeah. and I said Mr. Manager you know about this? and he said yes and I said, you could'a told me under my breath. So now, I am officially a supervisor in my eyes. Teehee! She's alright, likes to smoke, p.u. We'll see what happens there!

Now that's it. Hope ya'll are having a great holiday weekend!!! Don't burn off your eyebrows!

Hugs,
Kate & Greg

p.s. if you're wondering what to get Greg for his birthday, he made a Amazon wish list too. He's the greg sutton with the Electric Co on his list...not how to build a boat greg sutton. :)
