The River House is on River Street in Savannah, just across the street from the Savannah River.  It is in an old cotton warehouse where cotton would be loaded onto ships in the 1700’s and 1800’s and set sail to the mother land in England.  The character of these old buildings is incredible, along with the streets and alley ways.  They have survived hundreds of years of weather and use.  The walls are sometimes up to 35+ inches thick.  Bricks were made locally from the silt taken from the river.  It amazes me how well these structures were built so many years ago when technology was relatively primitive in many ways.

Oh – the low country boil was awesome, upstaged only by the company and conversation of family – Kathy, Larry, and Judy!
