Two Year Anniversary: Cumberland Island


This looks like a really serene picture of me gazing out into the atlantic ocean. In reality, we were at the seventeenth mile of a twenty mile hike and I am soaking my chigger infested legs, trying to stop the itching.


The nest of a white eyed viero, she was too quick to get a photo, but her nest was really cool.


Went out to the beach at night hoping to see some loggerhead turtles nesting in the sand. We didn't travel to far, one because it was dark and two because I am afraid of wild horses. They will bite you in the head, true story.


Here is a picture of our campsite at stafford beach. Just to the right of frame is our food and trash hanging from the tree. It didn't really stop the racoons whom I was in a constant battle of wit. ( I lost) Those buggers were smart, they even unzipped our backpack to get a bag of jerky out.


It was pretty amazing having miles and miles of beach all to ourselves.
