Jekyll Island, Ga.

We have moved to Kingsland, Ga. for a few days and today we went to Jekyll Island. The island is about seven miles long and a mile and a half wide. It is now a state park and accessed by a causeway and bridge.














William Horton arrived on Jekyll Island in 1736 and started a farm.













This is the remains of his house,














the house used tabby construction.











The state of George has made a wonderful state park of the island,













we walked the boardwalk out to the beach,














the wind was strong causing the Atlantic to white cap.
