Thursday we stayed close by. Around lunch time we drove through Fernandina Beach historic downtown and then we drove by.......
Amelia Island lighthouse. This one can only be toured on certain occasions. Ate lunch at Sliders. Then it was back to the condo.
This guy hung out with us all week.
Friday we went north into Georgia across this bridge to....
St. Simons Island, which of course but what else would I be looking for, but yet another......
lighthouse
St. Simons lighthouse was built in 1872 and is 104 ft tall with 129 steps.
I will never get tired of the views from the top of each of the lighthouses we visit.
Shrimp boat coming in.
This was a coast guard station, but now a Maritime Museum that we toured.
After leaving there we went over to Jekyll Island where the rich and famous use to have houses.
These are single family vacation homes that were owned by the Vanderbilts & Goodyears among other rich and famous
Now that is one big yacht.
We left there and went back and hung out on the beach the rest of the day.

Just noticed you had added some travel photos! Sorry I couldn't make it to Shelby's birthday, but hopefully I'll see you guys soon!
The Amelia Island pictures got me excited. We're going there over New Year's this year to visit Mark's brother Carl and his wife Stephanie, since they live in Jacksonville now. He's getting deployed to Afghanistan in January, so it will be nice to have their side of the family together before he leaves.
I'll get out to see you sometime soon! Love you!
