St Marys, Ga


We arrived in St Marys on October 28th and a few days after we arrived our friends Bud and Elaine aboard Diamond Girl, stopped in for a couple of days to visit.











Saint Marys really decorates for Halloween. We found scare crows all over town as well as every other conceivable decoration.

















This has to be one of the most colorful sunsets we have ever caught. Click on it so you can see it in a larger size!











Our friends John and Ann aboard Steel Away have been living here for the past three years. We first met them Thanksgiving of 2010. This year they are located closer to where we are docked so we get to see them more often! John built this boat which is steel and over 107' long.









Another cool Sunset that Paula caught with a military helicopter, probably from Kings Bay Submarine base.











Here is another scarecrow. This one is a bow hunter sitting up on his tree stand. If you look closely at the third step down you will notice a squirrel. The squirrel is real, and not at all afraid of the hunter!















Paula caught this flock of wood storks flying over one morning. They aren't a very pretty bird when on the ground, but they are beautiful when caught in flight.











Paula was really lucky to get this picture of a Golden Eagle. They are rarely found in this area. We hope to get a better picture next time we see him!









This is a picture of our friends Larry and Rosie on Flying Cloud. If you look closely you can see that Larry is flying the Marine Corps flag!











Paula's fondest wish is that when we decide to move back to land that we live some where that she can have a golf cart!

Today is November 21st. We have seen at least 30 boats arrive today for the coming Thanksgiving celebration. Last year over a hundred boats were here for Thanksgiving.
