    When I lived in Waycross as a child, we would go to Jekyll Island and St. Simon’s Island when we wanted to go to the beach. Thanks for taking me back! The still shots of the two of you are beautiful❣️

    I love Jekyll and the surrounding area. It is for sure a family friendly part of the world. Sea Turtle Center, Millionaires's Village, Horton's Pond, Horton House, Driftwood Beach, St. Simons Lighthouse, Faith Chapel, Christ Church, and all are really neat. (I see y'all went to Barbara Jean's.)
    Georgia is not known for crystal clear water. We have 5 rather large rivers dump into the water at the coast. This sends a bunch of sediment downstream. Not good looking water but great for shrimp and wildlife. It is a grade off.
    Those are resurrection ferns. They are cool. They will "die" during droughts but "resurrect" when it rains.
    Georgia has a cool maritime forest. Back in the day, the US Navy got most of its timbers to build the old wooden sailing ships from Live Oaks on the Georgia Coast.
    Georgia has one of the greatest range in tides from high to low in the nation.
    Most of Georgia's coast is actually protected and the area has been protected for quite a while.
    I am a Georgia Mountain boy but love my home state's coast line too.
    When you go back, book a trip to Cumberland Island and/or Sapelo Island. Just go over for the day.
    Try the Driftwood Bistro. They have wonderful food too.
    If you ever see the movie "Glory", most of it was filmed on Jekyll.
    (When y'all have kids, you'll need a bigger truck and a trailer and an R.V. and a luggage rack and more.)

      @@thepressleygirls If you ever go back, take some time to go on down to Folkston, GA and go see the Okefenokee Swamp. That place is absolutely amazing. I am glad you got to eat at The Driftwood Bistro. It is good!

    Great place to visit. I photographed a wedding there a few years ago, and also an engagement photo session. I live in Hudson, NC, by the way. It’s about 10 miles North of Hickory, and just South of Lenoir. My parents grew up here. They moved to Florida before I was born. I grew up in Florida. My dad passed away to Heaven in 2007, and then my mom passed away to Heaven this past November. So, 3 months ago I moved up here after many years of visiting extended family. I enjoy your videos. I appreciate your values. Jekyll Island had a lot of driftwood on it in the area where I photographed the wedding, and I see you were close to that driftwood toward the end of your video. Yes, you’re right. It’s like going through a little forest, and then voila, you’re at the beach.

    I haven't been to Jekyll since the 80's but I enjoyed the few times I've been there. Of course in my opinion it's not beach to swim off of. Lots of tidal backwash from all the tannin stained bay waters. Walking the beach was always neat. The live oaks were awesome. All the old millionaires homes were interesting.

    Corie, the ferns growing on the tree are called “resurrection ferns.” They dry up in dry weather, and come back out when it rains. Jekyll is such a beautiful place! I spent many summers there in my childhood. Thank you for sharing your trip with us.

    @carlahumphrey6258 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The fern growing on the tree is called Resurrection Fern. It grows on live oak trees.😊 It can look completely dry and dead. When it rains it will "come back to life" and be green again

  • @ramonahierholzer3163
    @ramonahierholzer3163 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    The ferns that you saw, growing on the trees, are known as Resurrection Ferns. When it is dry they will turn brown and shrivel up. Once it gets wet again they will green right back up. They can stay brown and dormant for 50 years, snd still resurrect into beautiful green again, with water. Cool! Thanks for sharing! ❤

    So excited that you enjoyed Jekyll Island! The island has been a favorite destination of my mother's side of the family (uncles, aunts, & cousins) for years! I've never been there, but the family has shared wonderful memories of their Jekyll Island visits. Sadly, they couldn't go this year due to health reasons, but hopefully they will make it there next year to carry on the family tradition!

  • @ashleyi7911
    @ashleyi7911 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Jekyll is probably one of y most favorite places on earth, though I haven’t been to a lot of places. It’s the mixture of nature and beach for me. It’s so laid back, slower paced, and there’s so much cool history. For a smaller island there’s SO much to see and do. And you guys stayed in my dream spot, the cottages. They are gorgeous and I’ll be ecstatic when we can stay in them one day. Thanks for taking us along 🩵

    Corie and Austin, I have enjoyed your vacation video tremendously! The Georgia coastline is beautiful! My husband and I enjoyed beach vacations so much and it wasn’t really a vacation to us unless we had been to a nice beach along the U S coastline! Also, aren’t those seafood meals the most delicious ever?!!! You two look so “at home” there and you have started your lives together by choosing great beach vacations each year! God bless you both and also your families! ❤️

    What a beautiful place. It was so interesting to see how those big oak trees were growing right on the beach. I’ve grownup inHouston very near Galveston, Texas, so we’ve been and stayed many times when all our kiddos were young. The Gulf is very muddy from the sand, but when you go a few miles off the beach, the water is blue and beautiful, but not on the beach. So glad you both got to have a little vacation. Thank you for sharing it with us. May God bless you both.❤️🐢🦀🐟

    We live an hour away from Jekyll. Beautiful place and much more modern than when we use to go for summer fun. Doesn’t even look the same but I’m an old lady, so this was long ago. I liked it because of it’s wild quality. It doesn’t even look the same to me now. The horseshoe crab is desired for it’s blood ( by science ),and is relative to the spiders, ticks and scorpions. We would go to Driftwood Beach mainly and the trees sticking out of the sand is an eerie experience and other-worldly almost. Private ( at the time ) and secluded with horseshoes, dolphins, schools of fish and of course…sharks. 🕷️🦂🦀🐬🐠🪼🦐🦞🦑🐙🐡 I see you made it to Driftwood Beach and I pray you enjoyed your trip! 😊

    I love this video. So many unknowns and unfamiliars to me. The way you sandbag for support of your tarp. Amazing. I never knew. I think Austin was wearing the same booties I have, if they're Merrells. I can't believe you have to climb uphill to get to the beach. I love it. But the Ospreys. I live in an osprey nesting area so I am familiar with them and have been attacked by them a couple of times. Many happy years to both of you. You guys are a blessing to me.
