Tybee Time walks with The Midwest Mermaid are when she strolls about taking in the history and the beauty of our little barrier island. Whether at sunrise or sunset, nature springs forth with daily show times for all to see. On Tybee Island, the clock slows down to a quirky, laissez faire and no one cares about deadlines or where the hands on the clocks may be. It’s called Tybee Time and it’s just fine with all who venture here. The Midwest Mermaid sums it up best…
“It reminds me of a very important lesson in life. If something doesn’t seem right, just wait, it can change in a moment and become amazing.”

This week we have the special delight of being out and about in Savannah with The Midwest Mermaid. Savannah is known as the Hostess City of the South and that means lots of encounters with the locals. Southerners love to display simply charming and truly Southern manners. They’ve got South in their mouths.

Always be a Mermaid with a camera, a blog, and an adventurous spirit…

I knew I couldn’t continue to live in a place where I am not able to be outside due to snow, ice and wind chills. On top of that, for the first time in my life, I wasn’t heading to the airport every other week as I am in sales. I had this unique window of time where I was working from home exclusively.
