Fort Morgan and Newport News

Fort Morgan is one of the newest national park additions. It’s often referred to as the Freedom Fortress. Was overseen being built by a young Robert E. Lee. It has a moat. LOL.
Cape Henry Lighthouses (old & new)

Located at the mouth of Chesapeake Bay, on the current Fort Story active military installation. The original lighthouse was commissioned by George Washington in 1789. This was also the “firstMeer informatie

Wright Brothers Memorial

Wonderful memorial and explanation of the eventual first powered flight of man. The National Park displays do an excellent job of detailing the failures, successes, and resilience these gentlemenMeer informatie
Cape Hatteras

Beautiful drive down the cape today. The ocean was alive and the surfers were showing off their skills.
Ocracoke Island

OBX. The outer banks. Maybe one of the most amazing sunsets we have witnessed.
Fort Macon

Fantastic NC State Park which provides an excellent education/background/artifact collection from the civil war battle there.
Moore’s Creek Battlefield

USS North Carolina Battleship

Always remembered going to the USS Alabama as a kid. Going to a battleship as an adult provided much more of an appreciation of these sailors, the sacrifices they made, and the assorted conditionsMeer informatie
Charleston Historic District

Have always referred to this city as the ‘clean’ New Orleans. Beautiful city. Rich history. Amazing architecture. A must see!
Fort Moultrie

Interesting fort. One of several that were responsible for Charleston Bay defense. Sumpter gets all the glory (see in photos), but this fort served well (especially in the revolutionary war).
Patriots Point - USS Yorktown

This was our first time on an aircraft carrier. This thing is huge! More space than the boys on the battleships had. But, their space was still limited. Powered by steam. Well worth the price ofMeer informatie
Congaree National Park

Congaree National Park. Unfortunately, this was a real letdown and disappointment. We believe the ‘National Park’ title should be for the best of the best. It’s pretty. The boardwalk is nice.Meer informatie
The Angel Oak Tree

400 year old oak tree. Provides over 17,000 square feet of shade. The longest limb is 89 feet long. Amazing!!!
Edesto Beach Boneyard

An epic beach hike along the South Carolina coast. Large swath of driftwood simply is begging for black and white photography.
Old Sheldon Church Ruins

Rich in history. These ruins bring you back in time and captivate your imagination. We were very lucky to see during the day. Then, we decided to camp across the street so we could also observe byMeer informatie
In and Around Beaufort SC

Assorted spots of historic importance.
Tybee Island Lighthouse

There is something just captivating about a lighthouse. On one hand I think it is the simplicity of it’s function for sea travel. On the other, it’s the complexity of non-gps travel.
Fort Pulaski

Another Robert E. Lee supervised fort. This fort witnessed a furious canon battle during the civil war. Union won. You can still find different cannonballs lodged in the wall.
Sapelo Hammock Golf Course

Huge shout out to Scarlet and Jason. Invited us to stay and play at their golf course. Amazing views. Even more amazing company. Only thing that sucked…were our scores. LOL.
Historic Savannah

WOW. This place is amazing. The architecture. The history. The food. The uniqueness. A tad of Charleston and a bit of New Orleans all balled up into one.
Savannah Cemetaries

Amazing tributes and history.
Wormsloe Plantation

One of many plantations in and around Savannah. These tabby ruins are some of the oldest in Georgia.
Fort McAllister

This was a confederate fort, outside of Savannah, which was bombarded by union forces on a constant basis. The earthen walls were quickly repaired each night.
