We lived in western New York, about an hour south of Buffalo and an hour east of Erie PA, our whole lives. Upon visiting the island for the first time in May 2015, we immediately fell in love and knew someday we wanted to be full-time islanders. In August 2016, we realized our dream!!! We are living the island life and loving every minute!!! We have three daughters, Libby, Lauren, Lindsey, a parrot named Moe, and a Yorkie Poo named Lacey, and a rescue named Jackson. I was an elementary teacher for 15 years, but since our girls were born I had been a substitute teacher in our small town. My husband Bill owned a Buick/ GMC Truck dealership.
Luckily in the Spring of 2015, we found St Simons Island through HGTV! I call it serendipity- the happy occurrence of fortunate discoveries by chance!!! That pretty much sums it up! We love it here and hope you will too!
