Tybee Island is the saddest vacation spot ive ever been to. Saved up all year for this spot and…read morewhen we got there it was constant inconvenience. Me and my wife are from Appalachia and we had no idea beer was not allowed on the beach. No warnings or nothing and a $400 ticket. While I was getting the ticket someone was smoking marajuana right next to us and a foreigner was wearing transparent-wet tighty whiteys next to us and the cop also. Of course they didnt get a ticket or anything. If your a poor white hillbilly like us then you might want to stay out of tybee Island. If your wanting to dance around in transparent wet white underpants while smoking weed this may be your place.

Our Beagle Chaya ran away on the last day of our vacation. She dug herself out of the fenced…read morebackyard and roamed the streets of Tybee Island until police/code enforcement were able to "arrest" her. This happened right before a thunderstorm and she was lucky to be in a dry crate at the police station. Just minutes after the they found her, she was scanned and processed. My wife and I received a call from the company that administers her chip (what a great investment it was) and within minutes, I picked Chaya up. Well, this review is all abut the police and code enforcement and I should state how happy I was that not only the City of Tybee Island picked Chaya up, but also the friendliness and professionalism of code enforcement. The gentleman, I believe his name was Dillon, was super helpful. As a pet owner and enthusiast himself, he was happy to see that we got our crazy beagle lady back before anything happened. I sincerely appreciate the quick response by all of those involved! Well, now that Chaya has a criminal record in Georgia, we may have to be careful that she doesn't escape again in the future

The Georgia Historical Society is housed in Hodgson Hall, the headquarters and main library of the…read moreSociety and this building was designed by architect Detlef Lienau, being built in 1876. The Society itself was incorporated in 1839 and now holds the world's largest collection of materials germane to Georgia history. Hodgson Hall is a delightful building with a commodius interior and fine iron-work on the exterior, making a visit feel like a trip to a grand library at one of the world's great universities. Architect Lienau, though German-born, was one of the founders of the American Institute of Architects and though not as well-known as some of America's nineteenth-century architects, did some very innovative work including this building and it is fitting that the Historical Society is housed in a building of such note and merit. The collection itself is not only large but varied and while a lot of it understandably concerns the colonial and Civil War periods of Savannah's lengthy history, it also has interesting architectural and social content regarding the modern and contemporary history of the city and region. The Society also conducts frequent talks and events including special programs for schoolkids, partnerships with local colleges, and other efforts at outreach.

It's a beautiful, historic building, older than the whole city of Seattle (hey, Seattle is where I…read morelive, I can't avoid comparisons) (and yes, nearly all of the buildings in downtown Savannah are beatiful, old and historic, bear with me), and one of the perks of majoring in history at Armstrong in Savannah is that eventually you'll be admitted to the innermost sanctum of the Historical Society (after getting a membership, of course). You won't be able to do your Methodology paper without access to the boxes kept in a climate controlled environment that you have to sign for and can't leave the building with, but it's worth it to leaf through the 90 year old Grand Tour diary of the 10 year old son of a doctor who was one of the earliest users of the X-Ray. I think he died of radiation poisoning. Imagine that. It's a cool and quiet library with big wood tables, little lamps and a gallery running around the room. Just what you'd picture. The people working there are cool, quiet, smart and helpful, and if you appreciate libraries, history, books, and/or architecture, you should visit.

I visit this library several times a month as it is the closest one to downtown Savannah …read more The first floor of the library is the kids section, with the second story dedicated to the adults. The library as a whole is very nice with an extremely helpful and professional staff to assist you. With a Live Oak library account, you can check out and reserve books, DVDs or movies . Children who attend school in the sourounding counties can obtain an account with no overdue book fees. That seems pretty nice This evening I went to see Shawn Gaskell play the Kora (21-string West African Harp) in concert. It was conducted on the second floor of the library. He also explained how the Kora is constructed and told us several stories of his travels in Ghana. As always, I enjoyed my time there and I am looking forward to my next visit.

Five stars for a comfortable library where I was able to connect and get some online work done…read more This is a big library (certainly bigger than McClellanville but not as big as Mount Pleasant) but it absolutely had everything I needed today. It would be nice if the parking was free, but I guess too many people were parking in the library lot all day and going elsewhere. I found a work carrel where I could plug in both my laptops, though it was a bit of a stretch to the power outlet (I need to start carrying a small power strip!) but quiet. I took a Zoom call or two here without disturbing anyone and still got a bunch of work emails done. Lots of books, DVDs and reference materials. Of course, you need to be a local resident to borrow any of that but anyone is allowed to use the library and the wifi is free for anyone to use.
