St. Simon Island (April 7)

Tuesday, April 7 – Both Trevor and Johnny had work early, so by 9 am I was on the road again, I was headed to my last stop in Georgia, St. Simon Island to see my friend Beth and her husband. I crossed the causeway onto the island where she lives and drove onto a golf house as I found her house. The 10^th hole is in her backyard. Crossing a forest of oaks and Spanish moss, I finally made it into her beautiful home. She made me a sand which and made me take some allergy meds. I think I am allergic to something in the Savannah area. I was feeling better within an hour.

It was a pretty cold day, but we decided to get out and go to the beach anyways. Out on the deserted beach we find that it was just about low tide and with a full moon just a day away, it was lower than usual. Walking over squishy masses of dead jellyfish, we start spotting and pulling conchs from the sand. We caught 10 live conchs in all, bagged them up and took them home.

Dinner that night was awesome. Beth made lasagna and I made fresh conch fritters. We relaxed, ate and played Wii. I slept that night in a real bed and thought about how fun Georgia had been and how much fun awaited me in Florida.
