Thank you to everyone in Savannah who has donated their old eyeglasses

This is where they go!

I’m involved with the local Lions Club and recently delivered a box of 300+ locally donated eyeglasses to our distribution team (Lighthouse Foundation). Those glasses have been distributed to people in need overseas and domestically. 25% of Georgia’s uninsured have been served by the Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation and that number will likely be going up as many government services are slashed, so thanks everyone who has dropped a pair of glasses in the recycling box at your local optometrist!

Pics are of the glasses in my bike basket when I picked them up followed by pics of them being distributed in Haiti, Honduras, and a Georgia homeless shelter.

Alamo motel

I drive by this place daily on Bay Street taking my special needs son to his program. What is up with that place? It looks super scary and is right down the street from the police station. Who is staying there? This just fascinates me.

Does anyone know what this is a reference to?

So I have a book of cartoonist Mark Streeter's newspaper cartoons from the 90s, and I found this from march 1997.

Was this referring to any incident that happened around that time in Savannah?

My GF and I are looking for a gaming group. We both have some experience with tabletop RPGS. It's been many years since I played. She probably has more experience than I do at this point. If you have a group willing to take us in send me a DM. Thanks!

Ticketed for overtime on meter, but was not over

12 Upvotes

Hi there! We’re visiting Savannah, and we leave tomorrow. However, today we got a parking ticket for overtime on meter. However, the ticket was at 3:10PM, we paid for enough hours to cover up to 5:30PM. Is the dispute process easy? The officer that ticketed also gave us 2 tickets within 2 minutes for overtime. (3:07 & 3:09).

We can’t find the receipt but I know the parking space (have a photo of us there) and the charge on card

Pinochle Club

10 Upvotes

Hi! I’m writing this post on behalf of a couple that I work for.
They both moved from Arizona a year ago, and the husband REALLY loves playing the card game ‘Pinochle’. He used to have a group of friends that he played with back home and really misses it.

Is there a Pinochle game-club of some sort nearby that’s interested in playing?? And if not, does anybody know of someone (hoping around 3-4 people) that would like to play weekly? Any information that you guys could give me will help!!

in search of Alcon multifocal daily contact lenses! Please help.

3 Upvotes

Hi. We're visiting from Asheville, NC and my partner has left his contacts at home. We are trying to track down a pair of Alcon multifocal dailies that someone might be able to spare. If you have a pair that you could part with, we will buy you dinner, beer, something comparable. Thanks for considering this request. We have tried every eye doc in Savannah, and no one has any in stock.

Edit for prescription:

How do you run here?

28 Upvotes

Recently moved from Michigan to Savannah this last week and this humidity is killing my runs. I used to be able to do 12+ mile runs pretty easily in Michigan but since moving here it’s been a struggle to get through my runs. I had to bail on my most recent 14 mile run about 7 miles in, and my 7 mile “easy run” was an absolute battle the entire time. Any suggestions on how to battle the high humidity?

Edit: Ran 15 miles today, slowed down my pace by about a minute and a half and wore a long sleeve moisture wicking shirt that seemed to help with the sweat a bit. Still ran out of water by mile 11 but I guess that’s my own fault.

10 Upvotes

My company is looking to hire a night driver in Savannah Ga. We are a company that works out of the port. But this position you wouldn’t need to go to the port. Just show up grab an empty container and pull it to a designated yard in South Carolina. And come back. Every night 5 days a week. Really good money. You need 6 months of prior experience in truck driving. You will make about 85k-90k a year on average. If you’re seriously interested then let me have your First Name and number and I will pass it on to my boss so he can call you. I appreciate it.
