Thoughts, experiences and adventures from a resident of DelSo aka Delaware Avenue South in Albany, N.Y.
As I’ve learned to do when I travel, I checked the entertainment listings for the dates I’d be in Savannah to see what I might catch. I didn’t really see much that was appealing, with one significant exception - Brandi Carlile would be performing for two nights of my three night stay. That was a … Continue reading Humans in Savannah – a field report
Next up on my travel calendar is a quick visit to Savannah. While the south is generally off my list of places to visit, I had a airline voucher that I needed to use before it expired and honing in on a destination that was within a four of five hour flight, was a challenge. … Continue reading Georgia on my mind

Add a couple of festive … Continue reading Roman Holiday wardrobe
In the last few years, I’ve embraced jumpsuits, rompers and one-piece coveralls in a similar fashion (ha!) to my baby bearing days when I practically lived in overalls.
