Wow!!
The season is upon us and it is in full swing.
The festivities around Savannah are clearly making the mood of the city a very inviting one.
No matter where I am, I can always put my hands on fond memories of this historical icon of a community.
I trust that everyone will give life a chance and make the best of this great holiday.
Happy Thanksgiving to you all.....

Getting The Word Out!!!!!
This comes from a more personal angle.
I write this blog so that all men my age and even younger understand the necessity for an annual physical.
I have been diagnosed with an enlarged prostate.
I lost my father years ago to prostate cancer and I was told by many that I should be checked for the rest of my life to ward off any break out of the disease.
I urge any man to make sure to check pride at the door when it comes to this subject. Regardless of what you might have heard.... This disease can kill you.
I sit in my room thinking about all of the beautiful pictures I've taken and how sad it would be to never have the enjoyment of taking more. I see my physician on a regular basis now and it never gets easier. But who says life is suppose to be?
I have a wonderful life that I still have plans for. I have a beautiful daughter that will someday give me grandchildren. (Not too soon Jaz ;-))
Seriously though, I realized that there are more important things in life than pride.
Something so quick and simple, yes it seems a bit invasive, but the outcome outways the idea of not having it done. I challenge all of my friends to make a pact with me that on at least the Thanksgiving Holidays will be an annual check up week. Some people asked, why not Father's Day? Well, I would rather be thankful that I know that I will see another holiday.... Nuff said!!!
I challenge you all ..... Wives, get your husbands to the doctor!!!! Kicking and screaming if you have to. Just get it done.!
I look forward to seeing you all for the holidays ....
Look for another fun-filled entry of photos coming soon.....
Until then.... Be Blessed
