We left around 1100 and headed northeast to St Simons Island and Fort Frederica National Monument. The Info center has a nice film about the fort. Unfortunately due to time and a fire all that remains of the fort are foundations that have been uncovered through the years. The NPS gives you a player that guides you through the ruins and provides a story on each ruin. Here are some pictures from the site.

From the Fort we headed to Southern Soul Barbeque. They have been featured on "Triple D". Beryl had the pulled pork sandwich and FF, I had the Southern soul sampler. Pulled pork, ribs, Brunswick stew, soul slaw and bread. We ate at one of tables outside

We got back to the MH a little before 1600. BJ got his walk, tanks were dumped and we chilled out. This tourist thing is tiring. We are going to stay here another day and head down the road on Thursday.
Thats all for today
Thought For The Day – By working faithfully eight hours a day you may eventually get to be boss and work twelve hours a day
