The Museum/Monroeville, Alabama

This is the old courthouse in Monroeville, Alabama. Monroeville's claim to fame is that it was the home of Harper Lee author of the book To Kill a Mockingbird.
Some years ago a new courthouse was built and the old one was made into a museum.
Most of the museum is devoted to the book and movie, Harper Lee,
and her childhood friend Truman Capote.
Gregory Peck did actually come to town and meet with Harper Lee before the movie was made.
The courtroom was not used in the filming of the movie. Possibly it was still being used for court at that time. Instead an exact replica of the courtroom was made in Hollywood and used for the filming.
The balcony.
The jury box.

Every spring there is a play performed in Monroeville based on the book and if you are a Hank Willims fan his boyhood home is located not far away in the town of Georgiana.

That's me. And that's the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth!

Sepia Scenes/ Screven, Georgia

A few weeks ago I was waiting in the car beside this convenience store in Screven, Georgia while my daughter went inside. I was surprised to see this telephone which appeared to be in working order. Don't see many of these around any more.
I probably wouldn't have even noticed the phone if it hadn't been so brightly colored.
Later in the day we were back at the same convenience store but parked in the front. I looked across the street and spied this bright colored door. I didn't notice until I was looking at the pictures tonight that the door and the phone seem to be almost the same colors. Just a coincidence I'm sure but I like that they match up so well.

Ruby Tuesday/Savannah, Georgia

Savannah Georgia is a great city to tour and I just happened to find a little Ruby Tuesday red there. How about this tour trolley!

This wagon of flowers was located in the City Market area.

I heard this musician playing way before I finally found him on the other side of these azaleas near River Street.

Behind the musician was the Savannah River and this beautiful bridge.
Another bridge view with just a touch of red.
No red in this one but I couldn't resist one more picture of the Savannah River Bridge.

Join Mary the teach for more pictures with red.

Sepia Scenes

This one room school house is probably over one hundred years old. It was located in a small community in Haralson County, Georgia and moved into the county seat of Buchanan. It has been set up and repaired and will be open on special occasions.
I thought this would be a suitable subject for sepia but when comparing it with the original I found that I really like the original better so I decided to post both. I think the splash of color in the middle really helps.

Ruby Tuesday/The Lady and Sons

This is the famous Lady and Sons restaurant in Savannah, Georgia. Does it look like what you thought?

There's Paula Deen in the window smiling at us! No we did not eat there. We had tried it before and decided to eat somewhere else.

Post a picture with some red in it then join Mary the Teach for Ruby Tuesday.

Today's Flowers/White Azaleas

Our white azaleas are blooming. I love the beauty of these white flowers but they only last a few days before they start turning brown. For that reason I prefer the other colors.
Join Louis and his helpers for more flowers.
