We took a couple days this weekend to relax and visit Savannah.

Slave Quarters
The slave quarters from the Owens-Thomas House.

I liked the way the light passed through this inside window at the Owens-Thomas House.
Owens-Thomas House Bridge
The Owens-Thomas House second floor as a bridge over the stairs. I bet the kids who grew up here loved it.

This portrait of Kahlil Gibran is on display at the Telfair Academy. His writings influenced my thinking about language and poetry, but always in my native language not his.

This posed image of a boy resting on his donkey is part of a collection that caught my attention at the Telfair Academy.
