After Rachel and Scott’s beautiful wedding in Atlanta we went down to Richmond Hill, GA (near Savannah) to visit our friends and do some megaladon tooth diving.  Gene and Carole have a beautiful house on the Midway River and one day we went out in Gene’s boat to visit St Catherine’s Island.  The island is moving south at the rate of a few feet a year and as a result is eroding some trees.  The dead and dying trees create a very interesting area called the “boneyard.”

Don’t worry.  Barrier islands move this is not some Al Gorian horror story of rising oceans.

The results of the erosion are a bit weird.

Gene saw me taking a close up of the bleached wood of this dead tree and commented that the grain makes excellent “art shots.”

I’m using my best shot as my desktop photo.  I sure love South Georgia, my digital camera and Gene’s ideas.
