Jekyll Beach Trip

For Spring Break we loaded up the good ol' Expedition, complete with bike rack and all... and headed to Jekyll for a 4 day camp trip. The Speidel's came with us, along with our current house guest Michael. The weather couldn't have been more perfect... upper 70's during the day, sunshine, and nice cool evenings. We spent all 3 days at the beach and squeezed in bike rides all over the island, putt putt, Sea Turtle Center (complete with a live turtle surgery), baseball on the beach, racoon shooting, dune jumping, smore's, football on the beach, and Five Guys burgers :) What a great vacation!
Jekyll is amazing! The island has so many different beaches..... this was at one on the south side that not many visitors know about... LOVED the sign :) too funny!!

Racing on the beach..... and of course, Danny still won :)


Reed and Shea in the Sea Turtle facility.. finding out what their life would've been as a sea turtle :)


In the rehab area....
Reed reading about all of the turtles in rehab, their injuries and cures.

Tad explained to Ivy what was wrong with the turtles.

Group shot... except Rusty was working and Michael blew a tire... everyone else is accounted for except the photographer (me) of course :)
