1:59:50 — Join Mike on the balcony of his hotel room in Florida and on the steps outside his apartment after a very long and fulfilling trip to Savannah, Georgia and Amelia Island, Florida.

Also, enjoy some bonus audio of the complete tour of the Sorrel-Weed House, reportedly the most haunted house in America*. Listen, if you dare!

Show Notes: Sitting on the beach in Florida with my wife, testing a makeshift windscreen for my Zoom recorder; relaxing with a cigar on the porch of either the oldest hotel in Florida or America (the literature on the Florida House Inn is contradictory) after a very stressful plumbing nightmare with our hotel room; recalling my last trip to Amelia Island with my family in 1995, where I climbed off our second floor balcony to pet a cat, and my mother got us lost for four hours looking for a Denny’s; the 1996 summer Olympics and the amorphous, asexual mascot, Izzy; the stress of coming home after a long trip; relaxing at home with a cigar and whisky; recalling my trip to Savannah, Georgia and the book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil (1994) that made it famous; Savannah is supposedly the most haunted town in the country; recalling our tour through the Sorrel-Weed House, supposedly the most haunted house in Savannah; my adventure riding a horse past the famous tree from Forrest Gump (1994); how movies can implant artificial memories of having been someplace before; visiting Fort Pulaski on Tybee Island; eating at the Old Pink House; good to be home.
