Jekyll Island Club

29 May 2011. Before continuing the trek north this morning we dinghied ashore and walked to the Jekyll Island Club. Once the exclusive domain of J.P. Morgan, Goodyear and the likes, this beautiful 250 acre complex is now a resort. It was at the Club in 1910 that a meeting between the US government and private bankers led to the formation of the Federal Reserve. During our visit we were satisfied simply by a nice walk and breakfast. DBH
