On our way north to Carolina Beach, we took a side trip to St. Simons Island, using VRBO for a short 4 day stay. The main goal in stopping at this beautiful island was to see friends, John and Beth Keen, who moved to the island from Atlanta. We were able to catch up on life apart for the past 20 plus years. We enjoyed sitting and talking on the beach and seafood meals at some great SSI restaurants! We visited their church as church was how we met in Atlanta and where a family friendship was established and lasts despite distance and time away. John and Beth founded The Remedy Project and provide hope for the addicted via free counseling services. https://theremedyproject.com A fun note…we spoke with our retirement advisor, Brenda Dozier, only to find out she had bought a condo on St. Simons and lives in the same complex with John and Beth and they attend the same church. We also met up with Brenda and enjoyed lunch with her at her Condo Golf Club! The history and beauty of the area makes for an amazing visit!
