2016 - US - Jekyll Island GA

Jen and I had a hectic few months downsizing our material lives down to a 30-foot trailer and making all the arrangements to live a more nomadic lifestyle. And then the pleasures and trials (i.e. learning experiences) as we move further south. We finally settled for a few weeks on Jekyll Island GA, in a campground huddled among gnarly live oaks draped with Spanish moss. The island is an interesting mix of state park and private facilities, all strictly controlled to preserve the natural habitat and historic features. And what a history! For that, google Jekyll Island and the Jekyll Island Club. There is also some dramatic earlier history of plantations, slavery and slave ships.

Photographically, "Driftwood Beach" provided some great image-taking possibilities.
