friday treat!

It's Christina Ann!
What was she doing off on a Friday?
Well, the littlest girl has had an upset tummy these past few days.
The daycare center decided she
had to go after she went
all over her clothes today.
Since one thing leads to another, my first niece suddenly found herself with free time on her hands...
and me on her mind!
i thank You, God!

In fact, here's that almost-two-year-old herself, maybe looking a little the worse for wear.
She's had two clothing changes since she was dressed this morning, in addition to the two reasons for those changes.
That all served to tucker her plumb out, poor little dear.
By the time we finished at Larry's -
which was breakfast for me and lunch for her mom -
she was ready to call it nap time.
(smile)

As for these photos, they're a bit... off, aren't they?
I could say that I was trying to imitate that "Swarm" effect -
honestly, I could say that -
but, in truth, I was in a hurry to get some coffee into me.
(smile)
I've been home for a bit over an hour and I've been debating whether to make more.
No, I'll plan to have cola when I go to a movie later.
Now, which will it be?
"Dumbo"?
"Beach Bum"?
"Gloria Bell"?
Who knows!
Maybe all three!
(smile)

This review of Larry's Restaurant is from a visit in Nov 2018, but still pertains:

Sad news, folks.
Larry's Restaurant closed on March 20, 2020, in accordance with state requirements for the pandemic.
When regulations were loosened at the end of April, I had assumed they had opened their doors back up.
Apparently, they did not.
The two families have decided to keep the doors that way and shutter the business.
How sad for all the working folks who went there for hearty breakfasts and midday sustenance.
I imagine Carey Hilliard's will see an increase in their business.

Dear Savannah,
To our dearest family, friends, employees, loyal customers and community,
March 26, 2020 was a day that will forever be with us. It was on that day that we closed our doors for what we now know would be that last time. Our family has been in the restaurant business in the excess of 65 years, from Corey’s Poinsetta Restaurant, to Tom’s Drive Inn on Skidaway Road and completing the run with Larry’s Restaurant on Skidaway Road. We have been fortunate over the years to meet and create relationships and friendships with so many and blessed to have worked along some of the finest people we will ever know. We will never be able to thank Savannah and our community enough for the love and support all these years. There is never an easy way to say goodbye, but the time for us to do so has come. It is with great difficulty that we have decided not to reopen Larry’s Restaurant. We will miss you all and again thank you Savannah!
God Bless,
The Columbia and Corey Family"
