Once the rain ended on Wednesday, we were treated to the most amazing sunset! What was particularly interesting is that the pictures we took were actually towards the East, where the sunset was reflecting onto the clouds and creating...
Turtles, Driftwood, and the Lowcountry
Monday morning, we headed North on I-95 and detoured out to Jekyll Island, GA. I’d heard it was a wonderful place, and it truly is! We only spent a couple hours there, but we are confident we’ll be back...

We’re back! Mark successfully completed his four weeks of grand jury duty, but I have no idea if it was interesting or not because he’s not allowed to tell us anything about their ‘secret’ proceedings. He was fortunate because...
