A long drive North from Miami with a quick stop at Blue Springs State Park (Hopefully Manatees will be there.. I just LOVE those tubby sea-cows)
First night in Brunswick GA, at the Hostel in the Forest, where this awaits me..
Yes.. its a tree-house.Now, "why would you want to stay in a tree-house Jane?" I hear you ask... Well, simply because its $20 p/n which includes dinner - vegetarian dinner - but dinner none the less.
Besides, it affords me the opportunity to discover rare and distinguished breeds of hens (quite useful if I lived on a farm)..
.. and socialize in the Main Dome..
.. meeting new people (with really big cabbages!)..
It looks a bit like a hippie commune (see, told ya 'spiritual re-awakening'), but its not really - they're world-renowned for their geodesic domes, and besides, they're living in an ecologically fragile spot, so they need to be organic/self-sustaining/recycling
Besides, I was really lured by the their claim of being only 1/2 mile East from the "Best BBQ on the Planet" .. that, and the $20 price tag.
No more posting for a while..

the only thing that confuses me is how can they offer a vegetarian BBQ? the vegetarian and Best BBQ.. can we cook that hen?
Hi Gia,
The BBQ is about 1/2 mile from their location.. being in the deep south, it should be GOOD!
Welcome, btw:-)
I've adjusted its, so hopefully that clears up any confusion:-)
Lovin' that huge cabbage!!! :) But, to be honest, what I really want you to report on when you get back is the BBQ! Have a great time with the hippies!
Hi Kim.. thank you, and I will:)
Wow! That looks like a fun trip, LJ. You're not quite going north enough to make Tuscan Tony seriously envious - I've always wanted to visit Plum Point on the Pamlico river to dig around a bit for some poirate treasure:

I also think the pic of your cabbage-toting ZZ Top impressionists has the makings of a seriously good caption compo.
Hi TT, how are you?
I'm thinking Caption Competition with your 2003 Vino - or 2007 OO - for the prize.. GOOD idea!
..Of course, as host, I would be ineligible for any prize winnings:-(
I shall look up the Plumb River area.. I can see Herc doing the pirate jig, but for some reason, I have a hard time imagining you!
