Weekend Road Trip: St. Simons Island, Georgia

St. Simons Island Georgia

Darien, Ga., a quaint fishing village is home port for these shrimp boats. Each day, each boat travels three miles off shore in hopes of netting at least 400 lbs of the shellfish, their break-even point. Sadly, the poundage decreases every year. Yesterday, one crew brought in only 200lbs.


Traveling north on highway 17 from Darien you’ll pass the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC).

FATS training at FLETC

And finally, you arrive at St. Simons Island, a truly magical place.

    I think it was very nice gesture on the part of the killer’s family. It wasn’t their fault. And, no matter what he did, they’re grieving the loss of their own family member.

    My thoughts, however, are with Sgt. Hutchens’ family and friends. I’m watching the funeral on television as I write (the link is above).

    Well it seems a nice gesture to attend and bring a bouquet. How do you think you would react if it were your family member Lee ?

    Hope you are doing well and we have a new contest soon. Have a great weekend.
