Travels: Brunswick & Jekyll Island, GA

We left Maine in early October, 2006 to head south for the winter. We spent a few cold nights in MA and PA. By the time we reached VA (we detoured around NYC, Baltimore and DC) the weather had warmed up nicely. We had a blow out on the truck south of Richmond and spent a fews days around there getting new truck tires and taking a break from the travel. We then continued south and stayed in Brunswick, GA for about a week. Most days we'd take our bikes to Jekyll Island and ride there. There are bike paths (sidewalks a lot of the time) all over the island.

	Limulus polyphemus - the horseshoe crab. These are really quite fascinating creatures! Their blood is used by the pharmaceutical and medical device industries. Check it out at http://www.horseshoecrab.org
