Georgia

We’re mostly in South Carolina visiting friends in Edisto Beach, but we’re taking some time to explore a bit on our own as well. We’ve returned for a couple of days to Savannah, Georgia.

Today marks the end our delightful time together in the Southeast. Today, I drove six hours back to Atlanta and flew another five hours to California. I’ll be there for the next several days for some work-related events and a bit of personal travel over the weekend.

We spent a while walking the grounds of Bonaventure Cemetery before heading back to South Carolina to spend Easter weekend with some friends in Edisto Island.

This afternoon, we took a short trip to Wormsloe State Historic Site, the site of the home of one of the first British settlers in what would later become Georgia.

We’ve been spending this week in the already-sultry heat of Savannah, Georgia. It’s been around 30°C / 85°F most of the week, which – for those of us acclimated to Pacific Northwest climate – is quite enough, thank you.

From yesterday’s farm stay on the coast near Townsend, I drove down to Jekyll Island.

I found a last-minute AirBNB room on a farm in rural Georgia with goats and sheep and chickens and maybe an alligator in the river.

Here goes a great new adventure! I flew today to Atlanta, Georgia, as part of a grand exploration of the southeastern United States.

I have two hours in Atlanta and then south, south, south!
