Sunday Caching in and Around Brunswick 1/27/2008

We left this morning about 9:00 and left fro our first cache which was just down the street from the campgrounds and was in a small shopping center. Then off to Blythe Island Regional Park and a cache located in the woods just off one of the trails, next we headed back toward Brunswick and a cache along the Earth Day Nature Trail. It was a lovely small park with a great trail back to a observation deck and along the way it had informational signs regarding the wildlife and it had several displays showing the kind of birdhouses the certain species live in.
Then on to a small park along the marsh called The Marshes of Glynn, then to the visitors center and a cache located there. While we were there we saw we saw the old iron pot that the first Brunswick Stew was made in on St Simons Island on July 2, 1898.
Then down to the marina for 2 caches located along the wharf, then another close to a families yard where they had 2 dogs buried that belonged to them.
Lat was a cache at Glynn Academy. On Feb. 1,1788 Glynn Academy was created which made it the second oldest school in GA. In 1888 the records show Glynn had a graduating class of 4 girls and 2 boys. The first bldg. was erected in 1819 and cost $10,000 to construct. A new bldg was built in 1840 and served as the only public school in Brunswick and today is located at its present location in Sterling.The bldg now is due to be moved back to downtown.
That was about it for the day and we headed back to have lunch and I washed the windows in the RV. We did our logs and the blog and had dinner. We love all our family and friends and miss you guys.
