A Plan Is A Plan!

Sometimes, when we make plans - we just have to stick to them no matter what!

I've always been of the mind that 'a plan' is like 'a rule' -- made to be changed or broken. But when the plan includes birthdays, kids, and grandkids, and Memorial Day -- there is no way out!

That was the case this last Memorial Day Weekend when our plan to go to Atlanta for my granddaughters birthday and a Memorial Day Cookout with the family was the focus of our month.
Who knew there would be 7 days of rain? Who knew we would head directly into the storm? Who knew? Not us!

We left Thursday to avoid traffic, and, we did. Traffic, but not the rain.
Our sidetrip to Savannah prior to the Atlanta trek turned into a defensive driving class for bad weather conditions. We were glad we had just purchased new tires!

The rain didn't matter that evening -- our dinner reservations at The Olde Pink House were all we needed to relax and begin the vacation.

The next morning, Savannah gave us a glimpse of the sun for a couple of hours and we took advantage of it.

We headed straight for Tybee Island for a big Breakfast Club breakfast and a peek at the ocean in between the raindrops.

I couldn't leave Savannah without achieving my goal: Stopping by my favorite store DC2 Design on Broughton.

With my new purse (Love Saves) and delightful SedaFrance candle (approved by Oprah) packaged up nicely -- we popped into the City Market for a little local flavor.
Then we took leave of the highways again, heading into the rain toward Atlanta.

Oh, whoa is me!
