St Augustine

Perhaps one of the things that I liked about being stationed in Ft Stewart GA was our close proximity to Florida. The border was about 45 minutes south of our house. Jacksonville is about an hour and a half away, Orlando about 4, Tampa 5. It's pretty much a straight shot with I-95 so you can bet we were always spending our weekends exploring Florida and it's fine cities. One of the most memorable cities we've visited is the oldest city in the whole United States, St. Augustine. It's a very beautiful city. If memory serves me right, it was also the first time I visited Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum. I have fun memories of St Augustine, and now more than ever, I want to go back and visit. This is why.......

The art galleries of St. Augustine are sponsoring FREE, self guided monthly St. Augustine Artwalk, featuring the finest collection of eclectic art in North Florida where you can explore painting, photography, architecture, music and more. Free parking and free Sightseeing Train and Trolley tours are also available.

The First Friday Weekend Art Walk kicks off on December 7th. This will be a monthly first weekend event thereafter. What an inexpensive yet enriching way to spend your free time. Truly exciting times!
