Moving day again....reluctantly leaving St. Augustine....but we must move one...

Not going far today, another couple of hours...
More waterways....
more bridges....







We left Florida today.....I felt a sense of sadness when I saw the "Thank you for Visiting Florida" sign....but looking forward to Georgia...

The weather is about to turn so thought we better get out to the beach one more time before the rain comes so off to Jekyll Island we go. We are now in the Golden Isles.....






Then off to Driftwood Beach...this ones for you T...
Constant erosion has created a surreal landscape of bleached and preserved fallen trees.






Off to Jekyll Island Club Resort




It's hard to keep track of which towns are dog friendly and which ones are not around here...one will have zero tolerance for pets and the next will welcome them in the restaurants....not just on the patios...but actually inside!! .....crazy


This area is covered in these big ol' oak trees....they are so large...the branches reach so far, they drop and touch the ground and keep growing...


And true to the area and the inter-coastal waterways....there is always something going on ...this is a car carrier that looks so out of place here because you can't really see the waterway...it just looks like marshland....then this giant ship!

It's been windy for quite some time....like weeks...this morning it's pretty calm...but they are calling for more wind in the afternoon..... Decided to ride our bikes into St. George and check it out...really small casual little beach city... More white sandy beaches....this time with lots of shells...spent a good hour shell hunting... We saw lots of crab holes in the ground...apparently they are called "ghost crabs" and they only come out at night and they are almost transparent.. I was so excited when I spotted this shell.....but somebody was inside... and this baby crab on the outside!!! They have these really cute "tiny narrow rental homes".... these are the first skinny homes we have seen!! Saw dolphins in the distance for the first time today....super excited....George has to "make me move one" ....because I could stay all day and watch them... Biked out on the fishing bridge....this one goes out qui...

Today is the day....we must leave New York....it`s been great... it`s been expensive....and it`s time to go... Gracie may have wanted to visit this place...but no Dog Spa for her... Today is also the day we will part paths with Brother Joe...we will head West....because we must....he will have another direction...we will miss him....has been a great time travelling with him. It took us almost an hour to wind our way out of Jersey City...it was raining...and I swear Roxanne had us going in circles....there was detour after detour...and some ridiculously narrow streets.....but we made it......we had no idea where we were...the skies were grey and dismal and we just seemed to be going around and around..... And then this crazy horrible sign appeared...WTF....WEST!!! What is that!!!! It wasn`t long before we left the busy streets for rolling hill of trees...it is just so green and so hilly.... I love this one...it`s the first we have ever seen...... ...

It's a pretty fitting day to leave the beach...it's raining....it's still warm...but it's still raining.... Taking a ferry today instead of dealing with the traffic...won't take any time off our trip...but will take the miles off our trip...cost wise...not too sure...but if it can eliminate a few hours on the road in the city...it's worth it. This bird decided to build a nest in the busiest place ever!!! Right at the Ferry Terminal... And all along the way....Dophins.....Yay!! I will never tire of seeing them playing in the water! So before long we are on the New Jersey Turnpike.... which just means .....toll....after toll.....after toll.... and you have no idea which lane you are supposed to be in... Nightmare! Marty!!!.... You will love this....... You know all those American dimes and nickels I was saving.... Finally had a chance to use them.... Oh the look on his face when I gave him $6.00 in dimes and nickels!!! W...
