FLORIDA GEORGIA LINE

Mike & Pam

This is an old post (May 21) that somehow got disconnected from the blog and it is being reposted…..Oops

😊😊We are finally headed North of Jacksonville which is where we abandoned ship when everything closed in April of 2020! After a marvelous stint in the Bahamas, we motored quickly up the Florida Atlantic coast to get back on track and anchored overnight during most stops. As we move beyond Jacksonville the challenge is to pick the locations/experiences and amount of time to spend in each. There is sooo much to see up the coast it is tough to choose.

Back in the water! Sea C was in the shop in Titusville, FL
for a couple weeks to get the bottom painted
& fix a few other odds & ends. We lived 8 ft in the air
for a few days before going home for a spell.
Cousin Paul and Kimberly (& dog, Kudjo from Cudjoe Key)
in Wilbur-by-the-Sea, Fl. They are building a beautiful home in the area.
Wilbur is just south of Daytona Beach, FL & north of New Smyrna.
Didn’t know you could ride on New Smyrna Beach
like you can on Daytona Beach.
We see these little winged fish all the time flying through
the air for 10-20 feet at a time.
Fernandino Beach on Amelia Island, Very important meeting with these two regarding how to exend the railroad further South.
Fernandino Beach has a shrimp festival to commemorate three shrimpers that
challenged one another to see who’s shrimp boat was the fastest.
The shrimping industry came into the modern era
here on Amelia Island as they moved away from paddle boats
and into the modern day shrimp boat.
Wild horses roam free on Cumberland Island, GA.
Dungeness Ruins, owned by the Carnegie family, was a
party place in its day.
The beaches of Cumberland Island are filled with wildlife galore.
Here’s one of the many beached jellies.
Bike trails lead from one end of island to the other, to several
beaches, shaded with moss covered oaks.
Great bike trails around Jekyll Island, GA.
Many buildings along the Georgia coast were built with Tabby ~ composed of sand, lime, oyster shell and water mixed into mortar.
Driftwood Beach, Jekyll Island
Pam loves cemeteries.
DeLegal Creek Marina, on Skidaway Island. We came here to visit an old neighbor who lives in The Landings.
Our marina fee included a Discovery Pass for the landings, complete
with golf cart, which included access to all amenities in this community.
8500 people live here on 4,000 lots a stones throw from Savannah, GA.
A well designed community has paths leading to 6 professional golf courses/clubhouses, 5 pools, 16 pickleball & 32 tennis courts and a village with necessities for the residents on the island.
The many marshes of Georgia make for great anchorages.
Dolphins and birds abound.
