Wow this season went so fast. We are in the packing up phase and will be out of here monday morning and will be making a stop in Aiken, SC where NJ has been invited to do a talk on hoarding. A member of the humane society there was in the campground this winter and heard her talk which ended up in the invitiation to speak there.
Events this season included a trip to Disney in Orlando, tours of Cumberland and Saphello Islands. A tour of the deep water port in Brunswick where thousands of cars come in and leave. We also went to Ft. Jackson, SC and watched our granddaughter graduate from Army boot camp.
From here we are headed to Cape Hatteras, NC for 2 weeks and then a slow trek north. We are going to try and hug the coast up through Delaware and avoid interstate driving. Eventually we will end up in Durham, ME just across the 95 from Freeport at a KOA where we have a work/camp job for the summer. We are looking forward to seeing old friends.
Will start blogging again as we make the trip.

Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuse
We spent the day at the Okefenokee. The name means "Land of the Trembling Earth". It measures more than 1/2 million acres in size and was established in 1936 to protect migatory birds. In 1937 350,000 acres of the refuge was given additional protection as a National Wilderness Area. the refuge is home to hundreds of plant and animal species including the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker.
We are going to Columbia, SC on the 19th and will see Granddaughter Samara graduate from Army boot camp. Will spend a couple days with her before she heads off for further training.
The Jekyll Arts group is having their annual arts festival this weeekend and NJ has entered 5 pictures in the photography judging.
Time on Jekyll is rapidly coming to a close. We leave here on April 1 and will head for South Carolina where NJ is going to give a presentation to a SPCA group in Aiken. From there we head to the Outer Banks and will stay at Cape Hatteras for about 2 weeks before moving slowly back to Maine. We are due back in Maine around May 1.
