Greetings from beautiful Saint Marys, GA.

The Gulf Stream passes us farther offshore than FL or SC. We get brushed by hurricanes but rarely hit.

About half the county is wetlands. There is a lot of area for any storm surge to spread out in.

Savannah, at the northern end of the Georgia coast, will likely not fare quite so well.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
