"That was a punch in the face because we planned to do a lot of outdoor stuff (hiking, walking around, exploring, campfires, etc.) but we just couldn’t get the weather to cooperate. We did manage to make some of those things happen, but it was limited."

It may have only been 60°at the beach yesterday but I'll take that ambiance anyday over an Ohio winter!

Amelia Island in Florida is a really cool place with 13 miles of free beach access along with a cool small-town feel in the historic district. Glad we stopped to check it out. We'll definitely be back again sometime!

A #Photograph of the #barracks of #Fort #Clinch. #FortClinch was a #brick fort built on the site of an earlier Spanish fort to help secure the #Florida and Georgia coasts.
The Confederacy seized the fort in 1861 and used it to shelter ships that ran the Union blockade on Confederate ports, but was forced to abandon the fort a year later, and Union troops reoccupied the fort and tightened the blockade.

A #photograph of part of #Fort #Clinch, part of a defensive network of forts built in the 1800’s to keep the US coast safe.
Fort Clinch was completed in 1847, occupied by the Confederacy, which abandoned the fort after it became clear that then-current artillery easily punched through the fort’s #brick wall.
