If I stand on my roof, I can see Jekyll easily. Please, Lord, no more tourists- we have too many already for this old Island Boy!

If only Texas would post signs along the borders stating no snowbirds or illegals.

They'll just show up, build a house, and then write in to the Islander in a couple of years about how we need to stop development because it's getting crowded! :-)

The first time I seen the ocean was right there at Jekyll Island. I fell in love with Georgia. In fact, we plan to retire in Georgia. We have our sites set on something a bit inland, though. We're afraid of hurricanes.

I can remember the days before the Interstate was complete in GA and Highway 17 was the main road along the coast.
The Interstate only sends people past all the interesting sights to see.

lol I read the title, and being in arizona cracked up. We think as snowbirds as old people migrating here for the winter.

Highway 17 is the way to travel down the east side of Georgia.

One of the most beautiful places on Earth is right off the Georgia Coast.
And no, I ain't tellin'.

I'd recommend that the Ga. Patrol corral a few more of the northern invaders to boost monetary coffers instead...

From my experience with Canadian drivers in South Florida, speed traps won't do much to catch them. Unless they time them with a calendar.

So will JEKYLL become a place to HYDE-out?

What is the limit on "Snow Birds", and how does one cook them?
