Yes, Margaret there really are Dolphins out there!

We have made it to our vacation spot... Tybee Island, GA and......
Wow, there really are Dolphins out there!  I know, I read it on the website of the tourist information, but i figured "yeah, yeah, sure, we'll never see one". But they are really out there!  Sorry no live shots, it's kinda hard to snap a photo of a dolphin fin popping in and out of the water, but they are so close, like probably 20 yards!!  We saw them first thing when we got to the beach and have seen them several times since.  They are so graceful. Anyway....

We are having a great time!  Paxton LOVES the beach & the sand.  Can't say the rest of us are so fond. Sand, sand everywhere.... The beach here is very peaceful.  There are few people here and mostly adults and young children so the beach isn't packed.  There are tiny shells to pick up and we have even spotted a jellyfish washed up.

Isn't this sweet? and .. (no it wasn't posed)

We toured the Tybee Lighthouse.  We all climbed the 178 steps to the top.  Reminder... it's one of the tallest lighthouses....My calf's are screaming today.  But it was an incredible view of the ocean, river, & you could see all the way over to Hilton Head, SC. That's approximately 6 miles across!

One more day.... not sure how we will spend it.  Relaxing on the beach sounds good to me.
