p3   Georgia has 2 lighthouses the public can climb.  Tybee Island lighthouse is located near Savannah.  It was built in 1867 and is 154ft tall.  Painted black on the bottom and top with white in the middle, it also has a museum in the keepers house.
   The St Simons Island Lighthouse is located near Brunswick and was built in 1872.  The 104 foot lighthouse is white and its keepers house is a museum.  Now that I have clibed these two Georgia lighthouses I can keep going up the coast to the Carolinas , Virginia, Maryland, and New Jersey.
    One goal is to climb any lighthouse along the eastern coast that the public is allowed to climb.  Luckily the information as to which ones are accessible is easily attainable on the website friendsoflighthouses.com.  finding nearby campgrounds and trails can make for a fun trip.
    In central Florida we are very fortunate to have many cycling trails.  Only a few miles from my house I can catch a trail and ride for hours.  I can also catch a club ride any weekend and ride along with a group.  Occasionally there is a charity ride locally that you can sign up for.  There is an entry fee, but you get snacks before starting, sag stops every 20 miles, usually a t-shirt, and usually fed at the end of the ride.  You get a choice of distances to go.  I usually do the metric 100 (62 miles).  The largest rid the  Horrible Hundred held annually in November for over 30 years.  It goes through the hills of Clermont.  The last several years the event has had over 2,000 riders.  The Mt Dora Bicycle Festival has also been held for over 30 years in October.  It is a three day event with several rides each day to chose from.
