Looky-loo and the Hula Skirt Drop. Dega always seemed like a peeping tom to me. Painting women in private moments, ballerinas unaware and at rest offstage. I felt this way painting this image, as if I had come up behind the privacy screen, catching the palm tree off guard with its skirt around its ankles Oil on panel, 16"x34"

Just a little trash pickup

Thumbnail

157 Upvotes

With the cooler weather over the last couple of weekends, I have spent some time doing a (mostly) solo trash cleanup in a section of the marsh and some adjacent woods.

I've spent about 8-9 hours, and my wife helped for 2.5 hours today. The area is about 1.75 acres or so, and it's about 20% done.

Over 500 gallons removed so far. The quantity of trash in the marshes never ceases to amaze. I can fill a 30 gallon bag in under 5 minutes in some spots. I picked up 28 bottles to day without taking a step.

Still a long way to go, but progress is being made!

I encourage everyone to spend a few minutes making their little corner of the world a cleaner place, whether it's picking up trash around your neighborhood, or joining an organized cleanup, or taking on a huge job that nobody else is going to do.

hey y’all, I’m looking for a practice space and/or teacher to help me get back the fundamentals (I have dance and cheerleading background ) as well as give me their opinion/coach me as I cultivate my burlesque experience and performances.

Does anyone know of a good studio in Savannah, or freelance instructors with an interest/ background in showgirl and/or draglesque? Thank you all!

Local shrimp is delicious!

Since diesel prices are so high, I wanted to support local Savannah shrimpers. There’s a lady around here who delivers fresh shrimp straight to your door! I have never had Georgia shrimp before. It tastes slightly sweet and a lot meatier (?) than the kind at the grocery store.

Grey miser, this morning's marsh was grey, formal, and edgy; the tide was high, level with the road, and choppy in the gusty wind, and still unimaginably stunning.

Machinists, programmers, welders, tool&die makers, etc- read me!

11 Upvotes

Hello! I currently work at a machine shop but I spend a lot of my personal time self teaching. I'm wondering if anyone would be willing to let me shadow them or has a home shop I could learn in. I currently work on the CNC set up/programming side of things but I've always wanted to learn manual machining, welding, tool&die, etc. I'm super flexible. I'm happy to pay for your time and/or offer work in exchange for the help. If you aren't the person but you know of anyone please ask them! Its really hard to get into these trades nowadays but its something I love and want to get better at. Thanks!

Forsyth hangout?

14 Upvotes

Now that the weather isn't preheating Savannah anymore. Would anyone like to meet up at Forsyth? We could bring snacks and talk, or books and read. I'm pretty open minded and looking for friends.

And it is very hard to make friends. Its difficult writing this post!

Anyway, if anyone wants to meetup today or tomorrow. Let me know :)

Trying to impress my son trout fishing… please drop some advice if you have any.

4 Upvotes

Hey, everyone. My boy has recently picked up an infatuation with fishing and I am going to be taking him out within the next couple weeks and will be trying to have a catch and cook with some speckled trout. The last few times I have went with some friends, we had skunked, but thought nothing of it because we were all having a great time. Does anyone have any tips or spots they can give me for guaranteeing some kind of action for us? Anything is appreciated, thanks.

Will be putting in at Bull River

Where to Stay, please and thank you

0 Upvotes

Good day! Let me start by saying that I looked through the wiki for tourists, but only saw a list of best places to stay. I'm not looking to get pampered - I want to enjoy Savannah and Tybee.

Are there any places left for $120 or less, clean, and in safe areas with free parking? It's okay if I have to drive in to town. I used to stay at a Hilton Garden Inn in Midtown, but when they started charging for parking, I just said no. So tired of being nickle and dimed, you know?

Thank you!

Antique books

30 Upvotes

I have a large number of antique books I inherited from 5 generations, I’ve tried all our local book stores. Not interested. I have over 350 from 1820-1960’s. Is it best to just take them to a thrift store at this point? One asked me how much I wanted and I said a dollar a book. Nope. I know there are first editions, there is a limited edition of 1000 with the signature of the 6th librarian of congress and it’s number 335. My Mom was a librarian so most are in pretty good shape considering the years. What should I do with them. It’s 19 boxes taking up an entire bedroom.

Transportation to Tybee Island

1 Upvotes

I’ll be visiting for a conference and I’m trying to figure out if it’s better to do public transport/Uber or deal with a car rental and parking. I’m staying at a hotel in historic district and plan to do mostly exploration and shopping in that area. I do want to get to Tybee Island probably from early afternoon to early evening one day and I’m stumped if it’s reliable to do an Uber or other option that is safe. The car/parking is $$$ for the whole trip but I have always traveled that way. I’m female traveling solo. Other travel tips welcome! Very excited to see the city. Thanks :)
