Savannah's Streets

Southern Living says that Savannah has the most beautiful streets in the South.  The streets of Charleston and St. Augustine and New Orleans are all unbelievable, but  after walking these streets in Savannah a few weeks ago, I'm thinking Southern Living may be right.

Savannah's Public Squares

James Oglethorpe must have been having a good day when he laid out the plans for the new city of Savannah, Georgia.  He designed the houses and businesses around a series of twenty-four public squares.  There are twenty-two now; all different, all beautiful.   These squares provide the perfect resting place on a hot day when you are walking and gawking like a tourist for hours.
