We also toured Fort Frederica again. This was the first English settlement in Georgia to defend against the Spanish. They happened to be having a reenactment the day we visited, lucky us, so we got some shots of that as well. I am really entrigued by the construction of the homes at the fort and it is still a style that is prevalent in the homes around St. Simons. Must have been tons of oyster shells in the day. Check out the rat underneath the table of the Dr. reenactor's table. I asked why it was there and he smiled and said there were always vermin present during operations...yuk... don't think you can see some of the operating implements.... they are horrific.
