JEYKLL ISLAND - GEORGIA

Our new friend Ed (his son Wayne has a boat named Isis at Port Whitby Marina) invited us on a day trip to Jeykll Island yesterday/Sunday.  The weather was perfect and the island was beautiful.  It is reknowned for having been occupied by millionaires...Roosevelt, Crane, Gould.  We had an amazing luncheon at Crane Cottage, visited a turtle sanctuary/hospital and arrived at low tide...pics attached of both low and a rising tide. Amazing to see sailboats with keels completely buried in the soft mudflats, waiting for high tide to return them to floating in the water. 
We are departing for Canada in just a few days - it will be sad to leave our new vessel behind.

LOW TIDE MUDFLATS - at high tide the entire area is water
