Driftwood Beach |
So just for context, Jekyll Island IS the State Park...the whole thing, taken by eminent domain in 1947. The campground is a money maker by packing in as many RV’s as possible. For day two, we rented a couple of bicycles and circumnavigated pretty much the entire island. The trail winds all through the island, sometimes on the beach, sometimes in the woods, and sometimes next to alligator infested waters.

Cottage in the Historic District |
Close to the end of the trip, we biked through the historic district, with 6,000 sq ft “cottages,” and an interesting old hotel that has been restored. Deb pulled lame as we were passing the cafe and bar at the end of the pier, so we stopped to resuscitate her with a glass of Chardonnay. It got her almost back to the RV, but I thought I might have send Drex out with a cask hanging from his collar, to get her the last few yards.

The Wharf Bar & Grill |
Back at the RV, we are dealing with our new “free range” eating. We have learned that laying hens don’t necessarily make the tenderest meat, and at $13/lb there may be a different solution in our future. We had chicken and root stew (after boiling for 40 minutes, the chicken was more tender)
Then we watched “Pacific Rim!”
Tomorrow, the Comfort Suites in Lumberton, our last night before home.
