First we greeted each other and made maps of where we live and places that we go.
then we left the Y we first walked thru Frazier Homes and saw some kids that we know.
and we saw churches on Park Street; Tremont Temple Baptist Chruch and St. Phillips Monumental AME Church.
After the Churches we went to the park. We got there as they were closing the Farmers Market. We met Mr.Lester who teaches photography at Savannah State.
Mr. Christopher who is a 7th & 8th grade science teacher at Charles Ellis.
We met Teri (above!) and Kelly (below!) who help run the market. Ms. Teri and Mr. Christopher are married.
We met Mr.Johnny, who works at the market and takes care of the little green wagon.
The little green wagon is a program for little kids that come every Saturday to plant veggies. The can come back the next Saturday to pick them up and plant them in their own yard.
Then we noticed that there were people dressed up in costumes & fighting with swords in the park. So we went to see who they were.
They were very hot and tired when they finished fighting because the costume was heavy.
Then we met Ember (below!) who told us about the people fighting in the park. We got to hold the swords. Ty'rik got to hit Lindsey with the sword. (the brothers....)
And then we met Becky (above & below) who was a relative with the people fighting in the park. And she was a great drawer who drew realistic pictures. She was happy to meet us because she likes hanging out with people more than fighting. It sounded like she had a lot of friends.
This is one of Becky's drawings.
And look at her cool boots! (with a pen, ready for drawing!)
Next we went to Brighter Day for a Snack.
We met Steven who is a cashier at Brighter Day.
And a woman named Laura who has a really nice huge dog who was good at obeying orders.
Later: Renise and Ms.Molly ran down to the Telfair Museum of Art because there was a show hanging up by some of the kids that Ms. Molly did art with in the summer time. The show was about Savannah and people's favorite places.
I (Renise) met Erica, she works at the Education Center for the Museum. We also met Cara and Warren Raisch, they own a art website. They have two girls,katy,and skyleigh and they are really nice.
Hi G8-
ReplyDeleteI just read your blog and really enjoyed it. I live in Savannah but am not able to get out much. I miss getting to go downtown and explore what's new. Thank you so much for bringing it to me. I feel like I got out of the house just by reading and enjoying your pictures. I really appreciate it!
