1995 Georgia On My Mind

Welcome!

As a youngster grow-

ing up in Young liar

ris at the foot of the

great Appalachians, I

2

was convinced there

4

is no finer place to

he than in the Nortl1

5

Georgia Mounlllins.

8 10

Having now experienced Georgia's

Governor Zell Miller

many other scenic treasures, like the sunny

12

coasllll beaches and tlie pristine beauty of our

16

lakes and rivers, I am pleased to share them with

you. Georgia even has its own "L.ittle Grand Can-

18

yon'' that is well worth the trip off the interstate

20

that you are accustomed 10 traveling.

22

As a former history professor, I would especially

26

like io invite you to explore Georgia's rid1 and colorful past. Georgia is one of the original 13

89

colonies that eventually became one of the first

117

states in our country. We are home to two American presidents. the world's most popular soft

165

drink, the Inventor of the Cherokee alphabet ,md

179

tl1c world's largest college campus.

My wife. Shirley, and I maintain our family home

in the mountains, hut our memories of great Geor-

31

gia vacations stretch the entire lengtl1of the state. We are honored that you are considering

63

Georgia as your United States vacation destina-

73

tion. We helieve that you will find , as we did. that each visit ends with a longing to return.

91

With warm best wishes and best regards,

109

I am, sincerely.

G eorgia was one of tl1eoriginal 13 colonies and was tmablished bytl1e English in 1733 at Savannah. The region's history, howel'er, dates

back centuries earlier to a period when Creek and Cherokee Native Americans inhabited Li1e area Their settlements. although widespread and

highly developed tl1roughoul the region, were gradually reduced as Europeans settled in Li1e New World.

ll wasn't until

1730, howe1-er, that a group of English seulers made plans to establish a separate colon)' and name it after King George II. In Mardi 1776.

Georgia joined tl1e fight against tl1e British for independence.

l
'111e Revolutionary W:1r ended in 1783, and Georgia became

the fouru1 slate in the Union to ratify tl1e United States Constitution. Settlers and land companies began del'eloping the new state. In 1838 tl1e

remaining Nati1<e Americans in Georgia were forced 10 nee to Oklahoma on tl1e tragic "Trail of 1ears."

Atlanta de1<elopcd

as a transport.1tion crossroad~ :md hecame a city in 1845. But witl1 the start of tl1e Civil War in 1861. Georgia's progress came to a halt.

In 1863. Gen. William Shem1an's Union forces marched across Georgia, burning and destroying nearlyeverything in ilieir

path. ThL~ de\lastation was later immortalized in Atlanta author Margaret Mitchell's cla~ic 1101,e!, Gone IVilb 7'/Je !Vind. Follo\\~ng the Civil

\Var, Georgia's cities prospered and her economy gradually recovered. Manufacturing and trade began expanding. Railwayconstruction

resumed. banking activities increased and towns grew. Through the tum of U1e century and on through two World Wars, the state continued to

experience industrial and business growtl1.

In 1990 the world held its colleclive breath as Juan Antonio Samaranch, President of the International Olympic

Committee, awarded the 1996 Summer Olympic Games to "the city of ... Atlanta" However, Samaranch's announcement represented not

just a plum for the metro area, but a victory for tl1e entire state ofGeorgia.

As tl1e residents of Georgia's capital began their

preparation for their new status as Olympic hosis, so too did thecitizens ofeach of the nine travel regions. 'l11e Atlanta Metro region will host

the lion's share of events, but look for other venue sites as you joumey throughout Georgia.

The Historic Heartland

features four evenlS, Equestrian (Conyers), Soccer (Athens), Mountain Biking (Rockdale County) and \blleyball (Alhens). The Northeast

Georgia Mountains will host Canoe/Kayak-Sprint and Rowing (both al Lake Lanier); Presidential Pathways spotlights Softball (Columbus),

and the C.olonial Coast is home to Yachting (Savannah).

111is venue plan allows visitors to enjoy all the amenities of a

cosmopolitan city while experiencing the wonderful dlverslly of Georgia's countryside, from the golden coast to the magnolia-shaded

heartland, to the epic grandeur of tl1e mountains.And the Olympics will offereven more than the greatest amateur athletics in the world. The

Cultural Olympiad, a multi-year program encompassing the arts, culture and entertainment, has an ongoing program of festivals,
exhibitions and colloquia that culminates in the 1996 Olympic Arts Festival.

1995 Georgia 011 t.~y Mind

The 1996 Centennial Olympic Games will have an amazing impacl on all facets of life in Georgia culture, athletics, infrastructure, entertainment and visitors to our enchanting stale will reap int mediate benefits.
The artistic and cultural traditions of the American South ,viii be' showcased
in the Cultural Olympiad and the 1996
Olympic Arts Festival, the programs of which feature two themes:Southern Connectio11s and /11ternatio11al Con11ec-
tio11s - A Centennial Celebration.
Southem Connections events wUl celebrale the extraordinarUy rich and diverse cul tural heritage of Atlanta and the South. Programs themed fnterna lional Connections will bring the best international artistry to Georgia. Some
of U1e exciting eventS planned fo r 1995
include a gaLhering of the living Nobel Laureates of Literature for readings ru1d colloquia. Some confirmed attendees include Toni Morrison (awarded 1993, American), Octavio Paz (awarded 1990, Mexican) and Czeslaw Milosz (awarded 1980, Polish-American), tO name a few.
Many cities and towns are following suit and creating their own programs to highlight U1e unique aspects of each region. For example, Macon, located in rhe Historic Heartland, will host a celebration of Georgia's food and music caUed "Macon, Georgia - America's Dreamtown for Georgia Music and Food!" Visitors will have a chance to tour the new Georgia Music Hall of Fru11e, hear some of Georgia's most prominent entertainers, sample frunous Georgia products Uke Vidalia onions, Claxton fruitcakes, Muscadine wine, and Mayhaw jellies; participate in cooking contests and meet celebrity chefs.
Transportation to Olympic events and venues will be a snap, thru1ks to MARTA, the official spectator transportation system of the Games. Atickel to an Olympic event will also be a ticket to travel MARTA throughout the day of that event. No matter where Olympic spectators board MARTA, they will not have to pay any additional fee. Or, if walking is the preferred mode of transportation, the Centennial Olympic Park

in downtown Atlanta will provide a pleasant spot in which to relax, as well as encompassing pedestriw corridors to many venues.
All in all the Olympics in Georgia means 31 new or modified venues; eight Olympic Villages; 10,200,000 tickets; 640,000 hotel room nights; 3,000 plus hours of television coverage; and 1,000,000 plus meals served. And Georgians are working hard to ensure a pleasant experience for aU of our Olympic guests.

Ir's not surprising ATLANTA METRO won chc compccicion for the 1996 Summer O lympic Games. The cicy has a track record for accepcing cough challenges and prevailing by sheer emhusiasm.
At che end of che Civil War, when ALianca had been destroyed by fire, her citizens chose co rebuild, though nearly everything
they owned was in ashes.
In the early 1960s, a resurgent Aclanrn invested in a modern airport. the biggesc air traffic hub in the Southeast, then built an even larger one in 1980. With the huge Atlanta/H artsfield Internacional Airport, the ciry became one of che largest air transportation centers in the world and one of che cop convention and couri~m sires in North Americ.,.
Oprimism seized Adancans in 1965, when they constructed a gianr baseball stadium a year before enricing a ream away from Milwaukee. Then they cheered through 25 seasons, dreaming ofa National League Championship. Who will ever forget che Atlanta Braves performances in the '9 1

and '92 World Series and '9 1. '92 and '93 National League Pennanr thrillers?
Today, on the eve ofthe Cenrennial Olympic Games, ATLANTA METRO's
2.9 million people are poised co be
winners again. The world will be watching more chan jusc the celevised s pons accion. Record numbers of visitors will be descending upon the city, resting its legendary sourhern hospitality and looking for amusement~. Plcasanr surprises await chem, and everyone else who visits, now or in 1996.
Atlanta is a sprawling city. Viewed from the air, it appears co be a mass ofgreenery, with gleaming sky-scrapers ac the heart of a spaghetti-knot ofincerscace highways. Ac ground level ic is all trees, rolling hills, preccy neighborhoods, and a clean, archicecrurally impressive hotel and cencrnl business core. Underground, beneath che viaducrs char cover the original screecs and railyards of old Atlanta, are an atmospheric historic district and an emertainmenr capiral.
Since Aclanta's srreccs do noc form a grid pattern, and since there is a profusion of

srreers conraining the word "Peachtree" (32 ac l~c count), the easiest way co gee oriented co Aclanra is co learn the main neighborhoods, suburban areas, and a few notable landmarks.
Five Points is synonymous with cenrraJ downcown. Ir is rhe inrcrsecrion of Peachtree Street (rhe famous one), Mariecra Screet, and Edgewood Avenue. Ir's also the southern end of the business and financial disrrict and rhe location of Woodruff Park, a $10 million gift ro the city from the former president of Coca-Cola, Roberr Woodruff. Covering an entire block, rhe park is one of che besr places to catch a lunchrime glimpse ofa cross secrion of Aclanra's citizenry.
A short walk away, Merropoliran Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority's (MARTA) rapid rail lines cross ar the main Five Points Station. The nationally acclaimed MARTA public transportation system, with 39 miles of rrack and 1,500 miles of feeder bus rout~, is che least expensive way co go jusr about anywhere in Arlanra. Downtown ro the airport is a cool 15-minuce ride.

Across from rhe MARTA Five Points Srarion is che entrance co Underground Atlanta, now in irs second exciting reincarnation. Covering J2 cavernous acres, Underground is filled with L2 resrauranrs and nightclubs, over I00 specialty shops and screetcart merchants, and is the gateway co three of the city's historical arrractions.
Lower Alabama Screer was rhe original Underground, the horresc spot in rown in che lace 1960s and early 70s. Ir is now jusr one part ofa cornily redeveloped complex char reopened in 1989. Old Alabama Streec Eaccry is che colorfuJ, fun-filled food courc, and Kenny's Alley is entertainment row.
H eritage Row, also in Underground, recalls Arlanra's history from rhe wilderness years and rhe days of King Corron co rhe Civil War siege and rhc building of rhe New Sourh.

On a smaller scale. the Monetary Museum at rhc Federal Rcserve Bank just down che block, rells a fascinating story of rhe origins and use of money chroughouc the ages. The High Museum at Georgia Pacific is a mini-version of the much bigger upcown original, yer convenicnc for sightseers with limited rime.
Because Atlanta is county seat, stare capital. and regional headquarters for federal government, a sizeable chunk of downtown has become the "government corridor." This includes a newly rcnovared City Hall, the Fulton County Complex, che Richard B. Russell Federal BuiJding, various scare office buildings, and the distinctive, gold-domed Georgia State Capitol.
The Classic Renaissance-style Capitol is a National Historic Landmark. It was builr in 1889, for just under$ I million. A Hall of Flags and rhe State Musel1m of Science and Indusrry are located inside its Georgia marble-lined interior. The Capitol dome

has been gilded C\vice, both rimes with precious metal donated by Georgia citizens. The dome is a piece of scare history, a reminder chat America's first gold rush cook place in I 828 in Dahlonega, Georgia, source of rhe Capitol dome gold.
An 11-block portion of downcown is occupied by Peachtree Center, designed by Atlanta archirecr John Portman, who shaped the city' s dramatic modern skyline. Peachrree Center is truly the center of Atlanta business activity with three of the city's fmest hotels; seven office cowers; the Atlanta Merchandise, Apparel, and Gift Marts; and lnforum, a spacious meeting center and computer/ information processing mare.
Revolvi ng restaurants and lounges atop che Westin Peachtree Plaza and the Hyatt Regency Atlanta afford sweeping, panoramic views of che city. Some of Arlama's best shopping, dining, and people watching are in and around Peachtree Center.

1995 Georgia. On My Mind

Savannah River made her a dominant force in rhe economy and policies ofearly Georgia and tl1e capital of the srace from 1783 to 1795.
The river continues co influence me
forrunes ofAugusta. The RivetwaJk, a
four-block, tree-lined, garden esplanade atop the central downtown levee, is the hub of rhe city's busy tourism accivity. A beautiful new marina wirh more than 70 boar slips along wirh a children's playground at one end, an 1,800-seac amphitheat re ar the orher, and a hosr of restaurants, shops and museums along rhe entryways make rhis promenade a mecca
for sighrseers, concert goers, and warer
sports enrhusiasrs.
Riverwalk is the venue for three world-class boating evems each year. The 2000-mecer lncerna tional Rowing Regana headlines a mini-spores festival of foor races and cycling concesrs. River Race Augusta, rhe highlight of rile Inrernational Ourboard Grand Prix Series, features more than 80 emranrs competing for rhe largest purse in American n1ot0rboat racing. Wirb more rhan I 00 hydroplane and flacborrom boars from across the United Scares and Canada, the Hardee's Augusta Sourhe rn N ationals is che richesr dragboar race in the world.
Festivals for all reasons and seasons draw crowds co rhe Riverwalk: Sc. Patrick's Day, bluegrass, 4rh ofJuly, ja-z:,:, Oktoberfest. The mid- September Ans in the H eart of Augusta is an annual fine arrs affair wirh an emphasis on tl1e city's ethnic diversity. Even when there's no scheduled activiry, rhe promenade is a delightful place ro scroll and enjoy the scenic beauty of the river, or cruise by on tl1e Princess A ugusta, an old fashioned paddlewheeler.
The 1886 Corro n Exchange ar rhe 8th Street entrance ro Riverwalk was once rhe scene ofover 200 brokers buying and selling around tl1e globe. Now it houses a welcome center, rhe convention and visitors bureau, and a museum depicting rhe rum-of- the-cenrury cocron business from planting co manufaccuring. This restored Victorian masterpiece is listed on the N ational Register Of Historic Places.
Since Augusta survived rhe Civil War with lirde damage, some of her heritage sires
dare back ro Colonial rimes. Meadow

Garden is rhe oldest documented house in Georgia preserved for historic reasons. It
was bu.iir in 1792 as rhe home ofGeorge Walton, youngest signer of rile D eclaration O f Independence and Governor ofGeorgia. The Ezekiel Ha rris H o use, also from d1e I790s, was a tobacco merchant's home and doubled as a roadhouse for his planters. The O ld Governme nt H ouse (c.1801) has been county and city government headquarters and rhe privare residence of some of Augusta's most prominent families. Ware's FoUy, now the Gertrude Herbert Art Institute, got its name from a public fuss over rhe $40,000 Mayor Nicholas Ware spent ro build it in 1818.
Modem development has nor disturbed four important historic d isrricrs in Augusta. The Broad Street commercial area is centered on one of rhe widest main
streets in America. Jc fearurcs archirecrural
styles from rhe early 19th cenrury ro Victorian and Arc Deco, and is rhe place
ro go for antique shopping. SummerviUe
is a hilltop neighborhood char first arrracred wealrhy Augustans in 1800 as a summer reuear. Olde Tow n was popular during Victorian rimes, and was often called "Pinch Gur" after rhe corseted fashions favored by irs residents. The Laney-Walker discricr honors Lucy Laney, a former slave who became one of the most omsranding educators in post-Civil War Georgia.
There are several historic churches in Augusta, one a particularly stunning Romanesque Revival srrucrure. Originally a Carholic church, the Sacred H eart CulturaJ Center has more rhan 15 patterns ofexterior brickwork, jewel-like stained glass windows, and an interior of intricately carved ltalian marble. Augusta's opera, baller, symphony and rhearre companies now reside here, and works by local artists and aurhors are displayed and sold in c.he gift shop.
The new Mo rris Museum of Arc ar Riverwalk showcases an even wider variety ofSourhern arc. Its permanent cotlection is a history ofpainting in the Sourh, from antebellum portraiture, landscapes and still life co 20rh Cenrury and contemporary creacions. The new Augus ta- Richmo nd County Museum, located ar 6rh & Reynolds, is rentarively scheduled to open during me spring of'95

and will cover assorted subjects such as archaeology, narural sciences, railroading, space exploration and more.

One of the great recreational resources of the CLASSIC SOUTH is Clark's Hill Lake, which borders Columbia, McDuffie, Wilkes, Warren and Lincoln counties. Formed by damming the Savannah River, che lake is the largest Corps of Engineers project cast of che Mississippi. More than seven million people each year enjoy swimming, boating, fishing, water skiing, and sunbaching on its L,200-mile shoreline. Camping, picnicking, corragcs, and sandy beaches arc available in Lincolnton's Elijah Clark $ rate Park, or on the southern edge of the reservoir ar Mistletoe State Park, noc far from Appling.

DAY 5
Savannah
Take a tour of Savannah's Low Country before boarding a boat at historic Thunderbolt. Enjoy lunch overlooking the site for 1he 1996 Olympic Yachting event. Next s1op: Fort Pulaski, which was engineered in part by Robert E. Lee; Tybee Island where the only remaining colonial-era ligh1house still is in operation; or Oatland Island Education Center, a 17-acre tract with nature trails to habitats of animals indigenous to Coastal Georgia.

Far from big cities, away from rhe press of traffic a1, d rime, Georgia's COLONIAL COAST breezes along ar a gentle pace. Historic Savannah, the most populous area in rhe region, srill has an unhurried, gracious air, and the hundred miles ofcoanal plain and golden sale marsh srretching south and to the sea islands are even more serene.
Unwinding is che proper behavior here. A chain ofbarrier islands provides world class golf, tennis. and beaches, as well as narure preserves ideal for bird wacching, photography, and eco-courism. Inland, in rhe exotic Okefenokee Swamp, hiking, canoeing, and camping are rhe leisure pursuits. In Savannah people relax by surrendering to rhe charms of rhe city's romantic past. Come July 1996, they can sir back and watch che Summer Olympic Yachting Events in che warers off Savannah's coast.
Savannah was wilderness in 1733, when a boarload of English seeders led by General James Edward Oglethorpe landed by a river bluff co found che first city in the new colony of Georgia. They came for cwo reasons: to create a buffer between che rich Carolina tobacco fields and Spanish invaders from Florida, a.nd co rry co grow silk. The silk failed, but when corcon became King, the pore ofSavannah became irs leadiDg center ofcommerce, and chc city prospered.
Oglethorpe drew a careful plan for Savannah's sneers: a grid parcern with 24 parklike squares. The squares grew ro be shaded by moss-draped live oak and magnolia crees and were planted wirh banks of vivid azalea and oleander. Sracely homes, churches, and rowhouses gave che city such a handsome look rhar, years larer, during the Civil War, Union General William T. Sherman decided nor ro burn ir.
With the decline ofcotton came a waning of Savannah's inner city appeal. Urban renewal in the early 1950s almost destroyed her faded 18th and 19th century creasures, bur rhe Historic Savannah Foundation stepped in to save rhe imporranr heritage sires. By 1966, a 2.2 square mile area had been reclaimed and designated a National Historic Landmark District, one of c.hc largcsr, most highly acdaimcd in rhe U.S. More

The city's Victorian District is a suburb undergoing similar cransformarion and offers a fascinaring view of preservation in progress, with scriking concrasrs bcrwcen "before" and "after."
A multi-million dollar Riverfront Plaza consrrucced in rhe mid- I970s restored a nine-block area along chc Savannah River thar used co be the old cotton exchange and warehouses. Now c.hc brick buildings house more chan 75 boutiques, galleries, artists studios, museums, restaurants, and pubs. The riverfront is a cencer of Savannah nighrlifc and a popular place by day, as visirors meander rhe cobblescone srrcers, relax on park benches, soak up chc old world ambiance and warch the ships go by.
City Market in the center of rhc Historic District is one of the mosr recent rcsrorarions. Wirh che inrention of recapturing che armosphcre of rhe old marketplace, more rhan rhirry arrisrs work in open lofts where they commission, <lisp.lay and sell their works of arc. There arc also gift: shops, rcscaurancs and an outdoor courtyard cafe here, as well as several jazz dubs for evening enccrcainmenr.
The best place co gcr oriented to Savannah is at the visitor center and Savann al1 History Museum on Marrin Luc.her King, Jr. Blvd. A hosr of tour companies deparr from here ro cover rhe hisroric disrrict attractions and outlying "low counrry." The city is also perfect for do-it-yourself walking or bicycle tours.

Colonial Coast

the white sand beach invites sunbathing, crabbing, and water sports. There's a fishing pier, and deep-sea charters are readily available. Fort Pulaski Nacional Monument, built prior to the Civil War to guard the sea-approach to Savannah, is located nor far from Tybee.

The 80 miles ofcoastal plain separacing Savannah from the Golden [sics can be travelled quickly on 1-95, or graduaUy along Highway 17. The slower route meanders by small towns intermingled
wirh old plantation sires, historic fores and
fishing viJlages.

Savannah's African-American history and culrure are preserved ar the 1896 King-Tisdell Cottage. The Beach lnscirute, established in 1865 to educate newly freed slaves, exhibits works by nationally renowned black arcisrs and features wood carvings by the late folk arcisr Ulysses Davis, who lived in Savannah for 40 years. The First African Baptist Church seems from the oldest black congregation in the U.S.
Horse-drawn carriages clip-clop around the squares by day and early evening, giving tours with a period Aavor. Replicas ofAmerica's hisroric riverboats offer narrated cruises, some with dinner and encertainmenc, and views of the riverfront.
Savannah's 18th and 19th century character is most tangible at the ciry's two dozen historic inns and guest houses. A couple of these are cozy bed and breakfasts, but most arc elegant, lodgings with antique furnishings and traditional ex'Uas, Llke sherry in che parlor, or afternoon tea. There are rwo deluxe convention hotels within che historic district, coo, and numerous horels and morels throughout the ciry.
Seventeen miles ease of town, T ybee Island recalls the day when a sray at the beach was nor an expensive vacation. Mom and Pop morels, rental corcages, and . condo units are the accommodations here. Fort Screven and Tybee Lighthouse are fun for exploration and climbing, while

Always fond ofa good parry, Savannahians welcome visitors to dozens ofspecial events throughout che year. Their St. Patrick's Day bash is second in size only to New York's. The lase weekend in March, when the ciry blushes wich brillianc spring flowers, the posh Tour of Homes and G ardens opens irs doors. A N ight in Old Savannah in mid-May celebrates the city's diverse roots wich a

Mid-November through December brings a Aurry ofyuletide accivicy for C hristmas in Savannah. And each first Saturday of rhe month, Riverfront Plaza becomes the busy scene ofFirst Saturday Festivals, with changing themes to su it the seasons.

Georgia's coascaJ communiries have an exciting variety ofsaltwater fishrng both inshore and off. Marinas, boar ramps, and non-boating fishing access poincs are plentiful in Richmond Hill, Midway, Darien, Brunswick and Sr. Marys.

cooked or ners for shrimping being made, in season. Darien, Georgia's second oldesc rown, was a t hri ving lumber center until 1925. Irs precry squa res and "Ridge" area ofsea captains' residences draw attentio n, as does Fort King George, a replica ofa n original 172 1 blockhouse-sryle fort.
Oarien's Welcome Center on Highway 17 is a source of information and reservacions for the Sapelo Isla nd Fe rry. Limited numbers ofvisicors and campers are allowed o n the island, which is now the Sapelo Island Estuarine Research Reserve. Tours include che University of Geo rgia M arine Research Institute, chc ex:terior of a palatial home once owned by tobacco scion R.J. Reynolds, miles of unspoiJcd beaches, and the delicate salt marsh eco-system.
The Hofwyl-Broadfield Plantation, in the Altamaha River delta ren miles north of
Brunswick. provides a glimpse inro the lives and culture of che Georgia rice coasr after 1800. The "low counrry" plantation house is surrounded by work buildings, rice fields and dikes, and well- marked walking trails. A movie in the museum explains che history and importance of rice cultivation in che region.
Creek and Guale Indians were rhe first inhabiranrs of rhe area known today as T he Golde n Isles. These barrier, o r sea islands with their dense vegetation a nd winding wate rways were much disputed terrirory among warring European nations and plundering sea piraces until rhe English finally prevailed ar rhe Barrie of Bloody Marsh in 1742. This conflict assured English dominance in the New World and is commemorated at the Bloody Marsh Banle Sire on Sr. Simons Island.
I n 1736, General Oglethorpe built an ex.pensive fortification on Sr. Simons ro help protect British incerests co che north. Fort Frede rica housed several hundred self-sufficie nt families uncil fire in 1758 ravaged most of the setdement. The sire is now a Natjonal Monument of tabby ruins brought to life through a rtful inte rpretion by che National Park Service.
After the Revolutio nary War some of che sea islands became corron plantations, producing such a superior variery that ir was expo rted all over d1e world. That way of life is gone, though, replaced by a thriving tourist inrerest in rhe Golden

Is les' sparkling beaches, natural landscapes, fine resort hotels, and spectacular golf courses.
One hundred of America's mosr wealthy and influencial men purcbased Jekyll Island in l886 and formed the Jekyll Island C lub as the.ir ex.elusive wincer recreac. T hey builc a large, turreted clubliouse and several private "corcages," spenc 56 idylJic seasons huncing, horseback riding, playing tennis and golf, and made sure "no uJ1wat1red foor ever stepped on chc island."

In 1947, The $rare of Georgia bought Jekyll Isla nd :rnd expanded it into a magnificcnc gecaway accessible co everyone. T he JekyU Island Club H istoric District, a National Hisroric Landmark, has been restored and runs daily guided tours. The Victorian clubhouse has been turned into an elegant hotel, and nine other ho tel/ motel properties, in every price range, have been built o n the beachsidc of the island.

A 63-hole public golf course. tennis and fitness centers, water theme parks, and a 20-mile bicycle path have been added over the years. There are campgrounds near the beach, picnic areas, and a fishing pier.

Sightseeing and din ner cruises, fishing charrers, and dolphin watches deparr each day from the Jekyll Island Historic M arina. Annual beacl1 festivals feature counrry rock stars and beach music oldie goldies.

Sea Island is best known for ics one choice accom modation, a 5-star golf, tennis and bead, resort built in the late 1920s. Gracious private "cottages" are also located on this island.

On Sc. S imons Isla nd, there are beachside condos and luxu ry hotels, deluxe golf resorts, and some of the prertiest scenery on the islands. Many of the best eateries are on Sr. Simons, as well as sophisricared shopping and nightlife. Probably the most photographed spor in t he islands is the enchanting lirrle Christ Church o n Frederica Road. T he most fami liar landmark is the J872 Lighthouse and M useum ofCoastal H istory in St. Simons Village. Visitors arc welcome ro climb the 129 seeps for a pru1oramic view ofrhe seascape or enjoy a trolley rour of rhe island.

Colonial Coast

Despite an abundance of resorts, golfing in the COLONIAL COAST need nor be a packaged vacarion. Numerous "pay and play" courses are popping up rhroughour the region, in Savannah, Brunswick, Folkston, and Kingsland/Sr. Marys. Boch Waycross and Kingsland will have new public courses opening in I996.

Hampton River Club Marina, at the northern cip ofSr. Simons, is the starting point for a trip co Little St. Simo ns Island, 10,000 acres ofperfectly conserved marshes, pristine beaches, and thickly wooded maritime forests. Since lodging is available for just 24 guests at a time, many ofthe visitors are summer daytrippers, who eagerly hop aboard the back ofa flatbed truck for naturalise-led interpretive tours.

Brunswick, gateway ciry co the Golden Isles, is also che Shrimp Capital of che World. Butte rfly- netted fishing boars rerurning with the day's catch are a commonplace sight along the Tntracoasral Waterway a nd che Sh rimp Docks on Gloucester Street. Common, too, is rbe plentiful variety of fresh seafood in local rcscaurants, and the rich flavors ofcoastal favorites like Low Country Boil, Cashew Shrimp, She Crab Soup, and Brunswick Stew.

Visicors to Brunswick may enjoy a walk on the Earth Day Nature Trail, a self-guided tour including wooden boardwalks across wading bird habitat, osprey/eagle nesting platform and wildlife observation decks. The wide-reaching salt marsh, where the seafood begins ics life-cycle, was immortalized in J878. in Sidney Lwier's famous poem, "The Marshes ofGlynn," written as he sat beneath Lanier Oak, and best viewed from Marshes ofG lynn Overlook Park.

Less than an hour's drive south of Brunswick, the small cowns ofSt. Marys and Kingsland have blended cogether of lace. The cute, rwo-block main street in Kingsland still has its turn-of-the-century aura and shops chat specialize in antiques and Early AJ11erican collectibles. The hean ofsleepy little St. Marys is its waterfront pavilion, departure point for crips to Cumbe rland Island . A guided cour of local heritage siccs is available through che welcome center in Orange Hall, a Greek Revival antebellum mansion lisced on rhe National Register Of Historic Places.

Mose ofGeorgia's southernmost barrier island is procecced as C umberland Island National Seashore and administered by chc Nacional Park Service. Ocher than a s mall, privardy opcraced inn, primitive campsires arc tbe only overnight accommodarions here. Reservarions are essencial for camping and ferry service.
The inhabirancs of Cumberland Island are mostly wild. Horses wander freely. The ma rshes are home ro ducks and longlegged wading birds. Alligarors live in rhe freshwater ponds. Deer, squirrels and raccoons hide under t he chick interior canopy ofgnarled oak limbs, and scamper among ruins of rwo 18rh and 19th century mansions. Loggerhead turtles deposit cheir eggs by white sand du nes on a bcauciful, unsullied beach.
Equally intriguing, chough nor as solitary, is rhe Okefenokee Swamp. This 438,000-acre National Wildlife Refuge and parkland, che largest and most ecologically inracr of ics kind in America, is easily accessed from three Georgia cities. In Fargo Stephen C. Foster Seate Park has cabins and campgrounds, as well as rencal canoes and guided boar cours. At Folkston Suwanee Canal Recrea tio n Area has a swamp boardwalk, a 50-foor call observation cower and views of the nearby prairies, lakes, and cypress domes.
T he Okefenokee Swamp Park in Waycross p.rovides the least demanding way co see che " Land of tl1e Trembling arch,'' as the Seminole Indians called ir. A guided boac tour focuses on che abundanc plant and animal life, whlle the inte rpretive cencer has lecrures, fi lms, and live exhibits. The Okefenokee Heritage Cente r and Obediah's Okefenok, a n

original 1830s homestead, describe the pio neer lifescyle in early Waycross.

T he mysterious swamp, che untarnished
wilderness, the pleasure of spore amid che beaucy of narure-rhese are che percn nial lures of che coastal plain. Woven together with sun_ny resorts, hisroric cities, and quaint seaside villages, they form a rapesr:ry of t reasures co be enjoyed aga.in and again. They are the timeless bouncy of Georgia's CO LON IAL COAST.

Julia. Woodlands, rhe grand manor house (now a ruin), was occupied one nighr by a Union general during rhe Civil War. The Confederate soldier who rried co warn the owners char the Yankees were coming was killed on his way chere and is buried on the grounds.
The surrounding 30 acres of English scyle gardens have been completely restored. In the spring thousands ofdaffodils perfume the air for weeks, along with roses by rhe hundreds, and exotic rhododendrons. There are boxwood, border displays of

perennials and annuals rhac bloom all summer and fall, a redwood arbor, fernery, and water and bog gardens. A museum in che former manor house kitchen focuses on rhe history ofthe Barnsley family and the resrorarion.
Oak Hill in Rome was built on an even larger scale, and its srory is one of the enduring legends of the Norchwesr Georgia Mounrains. Ir was rhe ancestral home of Martha Berry ( [866-1942), who saw a need and dedicated her life ro educating mouncain children whose families had been illiterate for generacions. She began with simple Bible studies and ended with the esrablishmenr of Berry Academy and Berry College, using her land and her inheritance as seed endowments and convincing some of rhe world's great philanrhropisrs co provide additional supporr.
The Martha Berry Museum and Art GaUery adjacent to the 26.000 acre Berry campus cells the story of chis remarkable woman. Oak Hill, a classic white-columned mansion built in 1847, is graced by manicured lawns. formal gardens, and nature trails.
The college sics on rhe nation's largest (and some say mosr beautiful) campus. Ir has an array of incercsring landmarks, including the Gochie scyle Ford Quadrangle, one of che world's largesr overshoe waterwheels, and the 1850 Possum Troe cabin where Miss Berry gave her first lessons.
A drive north of Rome on U.S. 27 leads through Summerville, where rhe Paradise Gardens folk arr project of Rev. Howard Finster muse be seen to be believed.
From Summerville it's a shore ride to rhe Georgia segmenc of Lookout Mountain Parkway (GA. J 57). This scenic route skircs Cloudland Canyon State Park in Rising Fawn, which straddles a deep gorge on the west side of Lookout Mounrain. The park is prized for irs year-round beaucy, and hikers know rhar a rrek down the rrails co che canyon floor is a walk through millions of years ofgeological history.
The cop of Lookout Mounrain was the Civil War serring for "The Barde Above the Clouds," rhc final clash in the struggle for control at Chickamauga-Chattanooga.

Over the years, reconscruccion shaped the mansion into the Georgian and Greek Revival-sryle centerpiece ofa sprawling shooting plantation.

Paradise Par.k, an 18-acre oasis in the center of town near several bed and breakfast inns, is a popular place for jogging, nature walks and picnics.
