Historic Savannah Georgia

My friends and I have been getting together on a sort of irregular basis for a few years now, each of the get-togethers being a haphazardly choreographed experience in chaos and fun with a little orderly activity planning tossed in just for good measure.

About a year ago I went to Georgia for one of these get-togethers to see two of my friends and get a chance to see some of the sights of Atlanta, including the Fox Theater where we attended a concert. I was captivated by the architecture of the area, both the historic structures and more modern architecture, and I left with a desire to return to the South one day and see more of the history.

Among the places that I would love to see when I can make my return to Georgia is Savannah, and the historic buildings such as the Isaiah Davenport House Museum.

Completed in 1820 by Isaiah Davenport as his family residence the federal-style home has been authentically restored with furnishings true to the 1820s. I would love to be able to make it there this December, as they will be having holiday evening tours that will highlight December celebrations of the early 19th century. Ah, to experience something such as that first hand, and to experience it surrounded by the splendor of 1820s decor with period music and scents filling the air. ::happy day-dreamy sigh::

I have always been interested in early 1800's architecture and furniture, finding it as lovely and captivating as that of medieval Europe, so for me a tour that allows me to fully appreciate the beauty and mastery that went into such construction as the early 1800's homes in Savannah is a perfect way to spend an afternoon and something that I want to be sure is on the agenda when I manage, one day, to haul my friends all down to Savannah for one of out irregular get-togethers. I wonder what December 2008 is looking like...
