This monument is actually a fort in St. Augustine, Florida. It was built by the Spanish in 1672 - well before Jamestown. It is so well designed that it has never been captured by enemy forces - it has only changed "hands" by treaties - primarily between Spain and Great Britain.
We spent a nice afternoon walking around St. Augustine and ate at a well known Cuban restaurant called "The Colombian." They make their specialty salad and sangria at your table and have delicious Cuban sandwiches.
On our way to Okefenokee Swamp this morning. At first - a bird the size of a chicken flew into the motorhome windshield! Didn't hurt our window but not sure about the bird - he did fly away!
