Pictures of Fort Pulaski

This is going to be a fun place to work, learning more about 19th century homeland security, historic weapons and coastal battles.  We do get a good wind here every day, but the weather is nice.  Our rig faces the North channel of the Savannah river, we can see Hilton Head on a clean day.  Never get tired of watching big ships go in and out of the Savannah port.  We have a Bald eagle that comes by almost every day but have not been able to get his picture yet.
