Dan checking out this huge tree on the lawn outside an old church building.







The trees on the coast line. Think the wind has had an affect on them.

The entrance to the island.

Me hanging out in our car waiting for Dan to get done with taking pictures.











You can see the bridge in the distance. You cross this to get to St. Simons Island.







On St. Simon's Island. Jekyll is the one in the distance that is getting rained on.





Can't believe it's been a year, but time has flown by. Dan and I went to Jekyll Island, GA. It is right off the east coast and is one of the Georgia isles. Lucky us, there was a Whataburger in Brunswick before exiting for our island so we had dinner there the first night, breakfast there Sunday morning, and lunch there Monday on our way home. Jekyll Island has a huge turtle haven where they help injured turtles or endangered turtles. We didn't actually go to the place on the island to check them out, but Dan ran over a turtle on our way to the mainland one evening. So glad no one was behind us! He missed the second one on the road. Anyway, the island was small and not very busy which was nice. No good places to eat though except the little ice cream place. We rented a 4 seater electric charge car our last day. It was fun at 25 miles an hour. Whoo-hoo! Here are some of the pictures from our trip! Happy 1 year Daniel! (maybe next year we can go somewhere I can see what is in the ocean :-)
