Jekyll Island

I’ve been saying this for years, one of the many reasons they hate us is because we don’t let them forget. You’d think, six months isn’t a long time. But our haters have been saying for six months, that there is no evidence for what happened. When Truth doesn’t matter, nothing matters.

I had heard of Jekyll island, to me, it was just a name. I was told I had to go if only to see driftwood beach. It actually helped that it was raining, the whole atmosphere made the beach all the eerier.

One has to pay $10 just to get onto the Island, its’ called a parking fee. Smart move if I may say so. These trees aren’t driftwood, they have grown here and fallen onto the beach.

Its’ clearly raining!

I love this atmospheric feeling on this beach.

Got to love all this greenery, that is what you get for the rain.

Driving through a tunnel of live oaks, with Spanish moss in the rain.

Since the late 19th century, this has been a retreat for the rich, Rockafeller, Morgan, Vanderbilt, Pulitzer built cottages and a large club house. Don’t you love this kind of cottage?

This is Moss Cottage, in the rain.

Goodyear cottage, btw, I didn’t get out in the rain. So these pictures were taking from the car. Goodyear is Frank Henry Goodyear – a lumber baron.

This one is called Indian Mound. Clearly if Had planned well, it would have been fun to go into one of these. But I didn’t.

The Clubhouse, which today is still a hotel. Didn’t stop at the museum or the other sights – it was time to drive in the rain down to Florida.
