12/10/15

Now I know that y'all think Nana and Nandad are on vacation but the truth is we have been very busy taking IE south. So today we decided to have a vacation day. We travelled a total of 5 miles up the Jekyll Creek and took a slip at Jekyll Harbor Marina. Now boaters never know what they will see along the way and this morning we were lucky to have front seats watching the Coast Guard do a water drill. Very Cool. Jekyll Island was once the playground for the Rockefellers, Morgan's, Goodyears, and Vanderbilts. It is now a state park and Nana and Nandad could view the beautiful Millionaires Village on a golf cart. They then took the bikes and rode to the now luxurious Jekyl Island Club Hotel and had a cocktail  on the porch. Life is good. A truly magnificent sunset at 5.23pm. IE will leave early tomorrow morning for Ferandina Beach Florida 75 nm - no more vacation.

    How did you like the boars head over the fire place.
    We loved the island. All the families had to evacuate during WWI due to the fact that German U Boats were spotted off shore.
    The Federal Bank was also created there.
