A few years ago, we were vacationing in Savannah, Georgia in June. As we were sitting on bench in Forsyth Park near that beautiful fountain, we struck up a conversation with a local walking her dog. She had moved there from somewhere in the north. We couldn't help but discuss humidity since it was impeding our breathing. I still remember her saying, "Honey, you don't have to scoop humidity."

I also grew up in the Midwest, in the shadow of Lake Michigan :( Now I hate humidity! I now live in the Southwest and I find it to be just as friendly as you describe the South, even to some of the waitresses calling my husband and I "Hon" or some other endearment. I was surprised when we moved here that the grocery clerk and bag person would talk to me! That would never happen where I came from! I'm not invisible! Have a great and blessed time.

We all need that sense of normalcy, spontaneity, grace, and freedom. One of the best examples of this is Steve Brown on the radio program/podcast, Steve Brown, Etc. Strange looks are okay!

That's been missing so much in the church... But, it's part of who I am. I've learned to bring that out even in environments (locations) that others think of as "serious." Sure, I get strange looks, but oh well. -Alan There’s something about the kitchen table – or the family room – that’s more conducive to laughter and fun than other locations.
