St. Simons Island

After we visited St. Augustine, we took a trip up to Brunswick, GA to see St. Simons Island.  We climbed to the top of the lighthouse and walked around the fishing pier for a little while.  The area was quite pretty, and it was an enjoyable afternoon.

The lighthouse was built in 1872 and is 104 feet tall.  It is attached to the keeper's house and has 129 in a spiral staircase to the top.
