Throwback pic! ⠀ How many of you own your own Throwback pic! ⠀ How many of you own your own home here in Savannah but rarely travel because you don't like boarding your pets? ⠀ ⠀ The pet-loving community is HUGE worldwide, and there are lots people who A.) love animals and B.) want to see Savannah. ⠀ ⠀ Guess what? They'll happily travel here to take care of your house and your pets while you go off on an adventure -- and they'll do it for FREE. You can skip the expensive boarding fees, and your pets will be happy because they can stay home and get spoiled. It's a win/win😊⠀ ⠀ Got questions? I collaborated with @nomador_com and wrote an entire post about it. Link in bio under "latest posts". ⠀ ⠀ #ad #MyNomadorAdventures⠀

To use it, drop a quarter in the slot next to the month you were born and the scale will show your current weight, plus a fortune 🔮 I had fun with it and dropped a ton of quarters in just to read the various messages. My favorite one said “More church and fewer nightclubs would help you” 😂😆 (And this is why I love taking the backroads when I travel!)

This tiny house is actually a museum — and one w This tiny house is actually a museum — and one well-worth visiting! The King-Tisdell Cottage is named after its former owners and is chock full of African-American history from the 1800s to present time. It’s located in the Historic District. (Sorry it’s not the best shot since I took it midday - but it’s one of my favorite tiny houses so I had to post it!) Oh, and that’s a horse hitch on the sidewalk beside the gate 😊
Savannah is jam-packed with houses, so that means Savannah is jam-packed with houses, so that means you’ll often find multiple homes on one lot. The larger homes face the streets and the carriage houses and tiny homes face the lanes, aka: back alleyways. Let me tell ya, there are some really cute homes down some of those lanes! 💙💙💙

Also, please note that this house has a welcome mat so guests can wipe their feet before entering the backyard. Naturally I’m VERY curious about that🤔🧐 Is this a common thing? Please discuss 😂
I have so many thoughts about this building. Too m I have so many thoughts about this building. Too many to list! For now I’ll just say it’s a shame that it sits empty when it has so much potential. (And someday when I’m all fired up I’ll probably go on a big rant about it 😂) It looks very much like Savannah’s own version of The White House, don’t you think?
