I'm going to guess one of Georgia's barrier islands but which one I couldn't guess.

flaboy, you're talking about Tybee Island. This is Jekyll Island. Love that place. Go there every Labor Day. Didn't see any nudes but did get a glimpse of a couple of girls wearing thong bikinis.

AL, there was a place between Savannah and Tybee called Williams Seafood that was very good. It burned down. Don't know if it ever got rebuilt.
john, if only I had had my camera when I saw the thong models.

I was going to guess Jekyll cause of the live oaks but I figured most of the islands had these. What threw me was the walkway. Never seen that of course its been quite a while since I was last there. Last time I was there they had Country by the Sea. Faith Hill was there (15 years ago ?) . She was wonderful.

Jo, that walkway is a bike path that goes all the way around the perimiter of the island along with two or three paths that cross the island. It's fantastic. You can rent a bike for $8 for half a day. Jekyll is by law mostly undeveloped and never crowded.Jogeephus":3ovgvtzg said:

Is that the Holiday Inn? The pic of the hallway looks like you are looking toward the pool area. I always liked the trees behind the H inn. Gave it a special feeling.
I lived in Brunswick for three months and got to know the area pretty good. Williams was a good seafood place but there was another "dump" looking place a few miles north of Brunswick down a dirt road that was really good. They didn't cater to tourists only locals.
North of there was another island that had a bunch of cattle on it. Probably ruined now but I thought it was neat to see cows walking on the beach. Definitely no fence problems if you own an island. ;-)

That's the Oceanside. Landscaping's better at The Holiday Inn but the rooms are bigger at Oceanside. Changes its name every two or three years. It's original name was The Wanderer and it remained that for a lot of years. The Wanderer was named after the last known slave ship to bring slaves to the United States. It brought a load in 1858 to Jekyll Island, some 50 years after slave importation was outlawed.

I visited Andersonville I guess 15-20 yrs ago on a trip back from Auburn on a Sunday afternoon. I want to go back. Take my children. AL, I'm glad you mentioned Andersonville. I'll plan to go during the Christmas break when they're all home from school.

it was nothing like i thought, if i had'nt watched the movie and read some on it. i could'nt visualise how it was set up. even down to the six union soldiers buried seperate from the others.

I went to Andersonville several years ago. I liked it. Really enjoyed the bookstore as well. Had a wonderful book on the soldiers who earned the Medal of Honor. Had each person's story. I regret not buying it.
