Springtime in Savannah
By: GLENN McCULLOUGH
Spring has been described as the
rebirth of Nature, and in that sense
it was never more beautiful than
now in historic old Savannah. But
there’s another kind of rebirth there
too, one which has a real sense of
urgency about it. Natives call it
‘‘Histroci Fever”. It is a rebirth of
interest in the things which make
