Judy and Jeff were telling us how many of Savannah's old buildings have been restored by SCAD - Savannah College of Art and Design. The first building we went in is an art exhibit building with a store that sells student/teacher/alumni products. We did not buy anything but it was very interesting.
One of the buildings had been a temple. Generally, it is not open for viewing but the man at the front desk asked if we were Jewish, and when we said yes, he asked us to sign a visitor's book and allowed us to view the building. It has been wonderfully restored and as you can see in the photos some of the Jewish symbols remain on the building.

From there we went to eat lunch at a place called Soho. It is an art gallery/restaurant. Every one has a different set of tables and chairs. Some real dining room tables, some kitchen tables, and some outdoor type tables.

After lunch, we went back to the hotel and rested. Later, Jeff picked us up to go back to Savannah for dinner and a show. Judy had her first water show (we are going tomorrow).
Dinner was at a great hamburger place, B&D Burger, where you could have a hamburger fixed a dozen different ways. They were yummy! When biting into my cole slaw, I felt something hard - I had lost a part of a tooth. Hope the rest stays in one piece until I get home and can see my dentist.
Next we went to the Savannah Theater, to see a live production of Jukebox Journey. They sang a lot of our era songs and it was a high energy show and a lot of fun. Jeff knows some of the cast, so we got the lowdown on the performers!
