Fort Pulaski, Tybee Island, Georgia




This was an awesome place to visit. During the civil war, the Confederates held this fort until the Union soldiers finally knocked down a wall and the Confederates surrendered. The tour was great given by a National Park Ranger, and they shot a cannon off in the square. The history was amazing and to be standing there surrounded by fallen soldiers' graves from the Civil War was sad. All the prisioners used as human shields, and the jails inside the walls, such History.

Tomorrow we head up to Hilton Head Island, S.C. Hank will be very happy to have all his communications back. He has felt lost without email, telephone and satelite. We have been "Lost in Space." Until then....bye
