The Launch of the Jackie B.....................

I took the afternoon off to  watch the maiden voyage of the Jackie B.................Tybee Island.... "almost" summer...2012.
I am suppose to be taking some time off for fun so I thought this would be a great place to begin.
I took my camera ( just like a tourist) and rode my pink bike to Aj's Restaurant on the back river to watch the event unfold. http://a-j'sdocksidetybee/
preparing to launch............

The boat is 11 feet long but it looks just  like an America's cup contender in miniature (Kathi a new project for you).


If you LOVE color you will be right at  home at this happy colorful place...Color everywhere....happiness and good food abound............
love the logo

Recognize this fabulous pink "'good health" machine.............
follow the signs to good food and great sunsets..

even the coconuts are colorful!!!!!!
the dock is  freshly painted and ready for summer fun

"found objects" from a barrier island and looking like "dock art"

......THE CHAIR ..for photo memories of a great vacation
umbrellas in waiting and Tybee island oysters shells in a cluster...........

.....serious and colorful rope art!!!!

the covered patio ceiling.. love this!!!!

The Tybee Island Bomb Squad..( Long story).......buy a hat or tee shirt and join!!!!!




how about renting a kayak or paddle board ?.................

or maybe a nap is more to your liking............

decisions ..decisions????????????

flip flops dress code!!!!!

stairway to great food.............




one of my personal favorite "found object' complete with sea weed

the view from a seat on the dock
or a "seat" in the waiting area..( the hot seat) ............. even handicap accessible



how about this for beautiful ?

and the wind in your sails...............
  Just had to share this day!!!!!!

.....a few clouds..... just add to the beauty of the setting sun.

  3. I love it. Being from So FL my son & I would go up to Ft Pierce and rent the "Rachel B Jackson" and go sailing on the inter-coastal. I love sailing, and I really miss it too. Just might have to get up to Tybee and do something fun, maybe jet skiing. I always do something different on my birthday. AJ's looks like fun too. Maybe this yr.

  5. Jane, We visited Savanna and Tybee last fall. I loved Tybee more that any other place we've been. The beaches were fantastic, the food was great and the people warm and friendly! Savanna was great too, just a totally different type of atmosphere!
    Your photos are awesome and I found you through your blog header on pinterest! I love the little couch with the piano window! I have the window and am looking forward to putting on our new deck at the cabin!
