jekyll island 4-22

No discernable effects from our stay at the i95 Inn, except someone turned off the heat - 46 degrees to start the day, and a long way away from savannah culturally. Headed south to Darien for breakfast, teach a class and a tour of fort king George, built in early 1700s, supposedly the 1st English fort in Georgia. There is lots of history here from early 1700s as the French, British and Spanish territories met around here.  Cycled down to Brunswick for lunch at the mellow yellow deli. With salad AND smoothies. Many towns here have both historical and poorer areas; in Brunswick they seemed to change within 1 street corner. Also rode by butler plantation where 436 slaves were taken from,, and sold in Savannah to pay off some debts in 1859, now known as the weeping time. Shamefully, the island is still known by his name.  Then over another big bridge to Jekyll island by 3pm for beach/pool time. Off the bike for 24 hours planned. 43 miles.
