Random photos from the streets of Savannah

Pink Oleander in bloom!   We learned this is a beautiful but deadly plant.   Leaves were boiled during the Revolutionary War, making a "Special Tea" for the Redcoats who forced staying with colonists.   They did not stay long!   

Another Oleander!

A great old oak!

Some nice iron work outside an antique shop.   Would be fun the fix them up and use in a garden.

A side yard with an old carriage house.

Our first Gnome siting in Savannah!


A nice railing with flower decor.

Along Jones Street.   The front doors are up stairs and most houses had flower boxes.

Stonework and fountains.
