I just returned from a short stay in Georgia’s Golden Isles. What a lovely place. It has been a lovely place for years and years, dating back to when Eastern millionaires, the Rockefellers, Joseph Pulitzer, J. P. Morgan, the Vanderbilt’s, and the Astor’s, among others, came South.
They sojourned to Jekyll to escape the harsh winters of New York, where most of them lived.
While there can be some biting winter days on Jekyll, you also had long periods of sunshine. At its worst, Jekyll Island on the Georgia coast is far better than they experienced back home.
