Sad to leave Jekyll Island but now we can look forward to next year. We headed north to Santee but on the way took a trip across the bridge to St. Simon Island and the National Monument at Fort Frederica.
I was eager to go to Fort Frederica to; 1. Get the stamp for my National Parks Passport book, 2. Learn about history I missed, 3. Visit a place called Frederica… my great grandmother’s name was Esther Frederica Albertina Zigler Dart. I don’t know why that seems like a connection but it’s something…
From Fort Frederica we headed due north to Santee Lakes KOA. We didn’t know it but leaving Jekyll Island let us avoid a big rain they got that night. We had a little rain but nothing like the downpour they got.
