My lova'

I fell in love this weekend. I can hardly believe it myself. I’ve heard the stories; I’ve seen the movies, but I never knew that a love affair could start like this.

I’m in love with Savannah, Georgia.

People told me that Savannah was beautiful, but that simple word couldn’t describe it. It is the most beautiful. It is so rich and gorgeous and full of history. People there talk about things that happened a hundred years ago in the first person. “We built that building in 18-such and such.” The people who live there are a part of the city.

We walked down an aisle of rose petals in Forsyth Park. On Saturday, we saw four separate brides getting ready for their weddings on the squares. It is the kind of city that makes you want to take pictures of every corner. Of little apartments. Of amazing trees. Of the people who live there. The entire city is a warm, inviting postcard.

If you haven't been, I would highly recommend a visit. If you have been, then I bet you, me and Savannah are going to have a little love triangle going on. I can't imagine going there and not falling in love.
