Join TREX for a visit to Jacksonville’s marvelous Museum of Science & History, “Where wonders never cease.”  MOSH brings to life the sciences and regional history of NE Florida.You’ll enjoy it!

Then we’ll take the short walk to the River City Brewing Company with a stop at the lovely Jacksonville Friendship Fountain in between the two to take pictures! Maybe one will be good enough to be your 2012 Christmas picture! The museum, fountain and restaurant share the same parking lot, just across the St. John’s River on the South Bank.

We’ll carpool from the Off Island Walmart parking lot. No limit this month. Come one, come all! Let us know if you can drive. Or if you need a ride!

Cumberland Island Lands and Legacies Tour

         Nancie and Jessica have decided to not do the Cumberland Island Lands and Legacies Tours because of the long day and the limited number of attendees.  However, we want to recommend it to you and your friends  
         The cost is $20 for the ferry, $15 for the tour, and $4.00 for the entrance to the national park and is limited to 10 to 20 participants depending on the day. There are senior citizen discounts available. You take the 9:00 St. Mary’s ferry and return on the 4:45 ferry from Cumberland. A park ranger takes you on a 5-hour tour in vans and travels over 15 miles around the island.
         The tour includes Plum Orchard and the church where JFK Jr was married. It is a wonderful trip and well worth the time and expense. The web site is: 
http://www.nps.gov/cuis/planyourvisit/land-and-legacies-tours.htm and the contact number is (877) 860-6787. Reservations are needed ahead of time for both the ferry and the tour.
         We hope you will go on your own and have a great time!
