Bubba Gump was right! Shrimp and crab boats are a way of life in southern Georgia. Every restaurant has shrimp, crab, and fried chicken on the menu. What a hoot!
And, big bridges everywhere you drive that are high off the water so the large boats can get in and out of the waterways. The savannas, which means flat grasslands in tropical regions, go on for miles. This is the entrance to Jekyll Island off the Atlantic coast near Brunswick, GA.

| St. Simons Island is next to Jekyll Island. Aren't these homes grand with the big wrap-around porches? |
The continual maintenance on this turn of the century home must be expensive. This home is well preserved.

| More ancient live oak trees along the ocean front. |
 |
| Look at those good looking legs! |
We had lunch at this pub and I decided to give ya'll a call from this old phone booth. Actually it was for display only.
These signs were hanging in the pub. Would you look at that!!!
This large pier is located at Driftwood Beach on Jekyll Island and is used mainly by the fishermen.
 |
| We could see St. Simons Island across the bay. You can barely see the lighthouse. |
 |
| Here's 2 and 1/2 fishermen catching yellow tail and sea trout using live, small, shrimp for bait. They had a bucket load of fish too! |
 |
| Ahhhhhhhh, the lady of leisure enjoying the sound of waves from the ocean. |
 |
| Quite a board walk, huh? |
We hated to leave this wonderful place, but our time was up at the RV park. So we headed to Tampa, Florida which is where are are today. We'll be here for a week exploring the islands and waterways along the gulf coast. I'll be sure to take lots of photos.
