Where are the Wheelers?

Savannah GA:

Back to Savannah this year. We stayed there last year on our way back but this time we chose a State Park which is 100 times better than the camp adjacent to highway and train tracks last spring.

The SP this year is located on an island 1/2h drive from the city. (Skidaway SP) Our site is facing the woods so that means no neighbor on 180 degres. Perfect. We ride bikes along the marshes and take walks. Privacy allows us to work out outside.

In this region, we return for a day in Savannah cold and windy but perfect to have lunch on the boardwalk. Here again able to taste food from the south. Walking through the streets you cross many parks, admire many old houses and sit on a bench in the sun across a nice fountain.

Tybee Island is on our list of must do this year. Very quiet summer resort at this time of the year, beautiful beach but we can imagine the crowd from May to November. Reminds us of Hampton Beach NH. Our picnic on its beach is followed by a tour of Fort Pulaski. (Another well restored civil war monument). It was stragically built by the Federal government but used by the south to try to defend its side at the beginning of the American civil war. However the south lost its battle there and the fort that took 12 years to build lost its defensive purpose in a 30 hours battle.

That concludes our visit in Georgia.

See you in FL in a couple days
