Halloween Weekend Recap In Savannah

 

Long story short, I drank a lot of beer.  On Friday, I picked up a six pack of craft beers from White Whale to take to a house party. White Whale Craft Ales is a magical new place where you can buy lots of local, regional and craft beers from all over the country. It’s located conveniently south of Forsyth Park on Bull Street.

Saturday, I went to see a foreign film that was having a screening as part of the Savannah Film Fest.  My friend Steve Wong, who is a film journalist, recommended the comedy, ‘Toni Erdmann‘. It was long but pretty good. I laughed out loud  at several points in the movie.  Later I went to see Front Porch Improv comedy show.  It was great as usual. Some of the improvisers and I went over to the American Legion for drinks afterward.   Of course, there were people dressed up for Halloween, and I took a few photos.

Super Ladies

 

Sunday, I went to Sav-A-Lot and I bought some Spam.  I had forgotten how much I like a Spam and cheese sandwich on white bread. You can’t eat fancy artisan food every night.
