we miss the beach and love going to Jekyll. We also lived in Mammoth Lakes, CA and know the beauty of those mountains and spend many of our days off with a short drive to the Georgia Mountains and Lakes. We enjoy the many natural beauties of this state.

Day trip last December to Stone Fort State Park:

Our back yard provides us with many short breaks from the world.
