Anyway, on Wednesday night, Steven volunteered to watch the kids so we could go have dinner and explore a little of Savannah. We went downtown to City Market (a cute square that has a fountain, restaurants, and shops) and ate at Belfords. It was amazing! Afterwards, we walked to Wright Square where we met for our Haunted "Ghost" Tour. Our guide was very good and we learned lots about the history of Savannah and the spirits that are said to still haunt it. In addition to the scary stuff, I found out about many more old homes that are now museums that I'll need to explore. Looking forward to really getting to know our new city.

Our Ghost Tour began with a full moon........ooooooohhhhh spooky!
Spanish moss grows on all of the Live Oaks down here, except this one pictured below. All of the trees around it have moss, but this tree grows over the place where the gallows were originally located. The tale is that a pregnant woman was sentenced to death for killing a man, and as soon as the baby was born she was hanged. 14 days later the baby died too, and the mother still lives in these trees, searching for her baby. yes, be scared. I'm a skeptic when it comes to ghosts, but it is extremely strange that there is no moss on this tree...I could possibly be convinced. we'll see...Below is the remodeled, but original structure for a children's hospital from back in the day (not sure what days...I need to do some more research), but it's said to be one of the most haunted buildings in Savannah.
Do you see any Orbs? Ghosts?
Cemetery downtown. haunted, too.
