A lovely a Fireside Martini at Shuk.

Shuk is the one place in Savannah where I can find mulled wine.

Just a little bit of Christmas joy.

This is an extraordinary outcome for the two members that ran for the Georgia Public Service Commission!

To give full context: These are two statewide elections for a commission that regulates telecommunications, transportation, electric, and natural gas services.

Local elections are especially vital. Every election matters. Please research your ballot and GO VOTE today.

I'm hard pressed to make crowd estimates but I want to say we had at least a couple thousand people! And at least eight inflatable animal costumes!

When I went to pick this coin up on my way to work, I thought it was a nickel, but imagine my surprise when I saw it was this shiny gem.

After a bit of research (and a foolish detour in thinking it was Nordic before realizing it was Cyrillic), I discovered that this coin is 2 hryvnias from Ukraine!

Even primary run-off elections matter. Every vote counts and your voice matters.

Today's haul. I seemed to have stumbled into a dragon theme.

With the deeply disturbing news coming out of New York, it's vital more than ever to vote, ESPECIALLY for local elections.

I almost missed this particular primary if it had not been for the organizers of the local #NoKings rally. I hope other people were similarly informed.

Even though I didn't take my camera with me, that didn't stop me from taking any photos or videos (photos in separate posts)!

I haven't seen any crowd estimates, but it was at least several hundred people, maybe as many as 500.
