| Driftwood Beach |
After our first night on our new
mattress, the verdict was “excellent”...no aches or pains; and we
both reported a good night's sleep. We did need to turn the heater on
for a short while this morning, just to keep the dampness at bay.
After breakfast we walked on the beach, packed up and headed south on
Georgia's Ocean Highway. We enjoyed the slow pace on this highway as
we meandered through many coastal villages and towns. I think that we
saw more churches than houses, many with signs indicating that there
would be a revival meeting soon.
Our three hour drive took us to Jekyll
Island, a pristine, seven mile long, vacation destination. Although
it has a resort feel about it, the Island's beaches, marshlands and
other natural areas reminds me of a nature preserve. We walked on
Driftwood Beach today where the driftwood resembles a tree graveyard.
It costs $5.00 to get on the island but it is well worth it as the
funds are used for conservation. At one area near the beach there
were bags of oysters piled against the dunes. A sign indicated that
these were placed there to attract larvae and thus helping to recreate the
natural ecosystem.

Tomorrow, maybe golf, maybe Talbot
Island, maybe whatever.

Hi Judi! We had a bit of a weather system go through yesterday, snow ice then a big rain and today just wind. Sheila's Dad passed away on Thursday morning, funeral will be on Tuesday. Bill has the clear to fly from his blood clot doctor; has another appointment this week with his gastro. He's enjoying his studies.
I'm glad you are warmer, and beachcombing. I wonder if you saved any driftwood.... :) Meeting tonight.
Happy and safe adventures to you both!!!
Anna Mae
