Champlain Valley friend and fellow Depot Theatre board member, Kimberly Rielly snapped this during her Savannah adventures and emailed it to me this morning. “Found your Savannah office quite charming, George.”
I love Savanna! But of course, it’s another George Davis, not me. Now you see why I’m virtualDavis…

The Charlotte, VT – Essex, NY ferry crossing will OPEN Thursday, April 7th. Departures every hour from VT: 6:00 am – 8:00 pm. Departures every hour from NY: 6:30 am – 8:30 pm
Spring has finally returned to Essex!
