Tallahasse to St. George Island
The Drive from Tallahassee,
Florida to St. George Island, Florida
About 2 pm, we left Tallahassee on
Florida 319, driving south to the Gulf coast. On the coast itself, I began to
see some new plants - those palms with creeping stems start to show up in the
understory, and even the occasional banana in some front yards. 319 goes to the
coast, then turns west. After leaving Eastpoint, there is a turnoff that goes to
St. George Island. There is a long bridge (and a very nice nice new one is
nearly completed) that takes you to the island, which is a long thin barrier
island running paralell to the coast. The town of St. George Island is in the
center of the island, real near to the bridge. Our condominium is about 5 miles
east, right on the beach and near to the state park. About 5:30, Geoff and
Philip arrived in Geoff's car.
