Christmas in Savannah

Thursday, December 24th, 2009 / Family, Flickr Photos, Life, Savannah / Author: Shawn

Once my father and I got into Savannah and it became dark, Beth, Christina, and I went out to look at Christmas lights.  First, we went out to the Roddenberry home in Windsor Forest. Christmas just isn’t Christmas without seeing the display.  I didn’t get to see it last year.

After that trip, Christina took us one of her favorite displays: the Haldeman Christmas Display. For 16 years, this family has has a lot of lights up on their property.  They give out hot cocoa and coffee. The only things they ask for in return is that you place your name in the guestbook and leave a donation for the Salvation Army.  This display is a nice little fundraiser for the Salvation Army.  In 11 years, the latest the tally the couple had on display at their home, the display has collected $45,000.00.

More photos from the night are in my Christmas in Savannah photo set.  The set is full of various Christmas shots taken in Savannah.

Before getting back into Savannah, my dad and I stopped to find the geographical center of Georgia.  When we got to the place the historical marker is located, it was missing!  So, I have a picture of the pole it used to sit on.

Now to have fun and enjoy the holiday with my family.
