    The fort looked awesome! It is always pretty wild to see the remains of buildings and envision what was there before. Not a bad anchorage either!

    Very interesting to learn what life was like at Fort Frederica, beautiful place. What was the tick count on Ollie. I always used Seresto flea/tick collars they work super. Don't like insecticide chews or tablets inside my dogs. Ticks are going to get worse up north also. Hope you weather out the bad weather OK. Aloha!

    • @SchoandJo
      @SchoandJo  2 года назад

      Oooh the tick count was insane, easily 100 ticks (not exaggerating). Cool to know those collars work - that would definitely be less invasive than the medicine! Aloha!

    I am so glad I found your channel! The loop is one of my dreams in the future when I semi-retire and seeing you guys do it, showing the good and the bad is awesome. We have 2 pups who will be getting trained on boating this summer on our pontoon in preparation for full time living, as well as improving my boating skills. If you guys decide to do the Lake Champlain portion, let me know and I would love to take all 3 of you out for lunch or supper! I posted a Harbor Guide on the AGLCA forum, and as a small time RUclipsr myself, I appreciate the work you put into your videos, as well as the bloop's.

    May I ask a question? Why do you always tow your dinghy when you have a rack for it? Thanks and I have very much enjoyed your videos of the loop.

    • @SchoandJo
      @SchoandJo  2 года назад

      Thanks Eric! The biggest reason is that we have to use our dinghy a minimum of 2 times a day so the time it takes us to hoist and bring it down kind of gets in the way. However just recently, the past week or so we’ve been hoisting it more so who knows what we’ll do going forward 😁

    The states of Georgia and South Carolina both have an issue with Lyme disease which is transmitted by deer ticks. Both humans and dogs can get the disease and it can cause a lot of pain and physical difficulties. I don’t want to give any incorrect information so If you have not done so, you guys should probably read up on the disease, it’s symptoms and preventive care.

    Hello, I'm really enjoying your nature vids. I don't know if you can find any eucalyptus oil. If you mix some of that with cider vinegar in a spray bottle, it's an effective tick repellent. I've heard of people using cedar oil too. Also if you get into an area with lots of flies, you can rub lime juice on your skin and the flies won't land or bite you. They hate the bitter taste. It might work for no seeums too. Your Cumberland series was really enjoyable

    Must have been pretty tough for the settlers but they did have land and freedom despite having to fight the Spanish for it. I believe the name came from the Prince of Wales. I wonder why it fell into ruins after the war (British / Spanish) finished?

    • @SchoandJo
      @SchoandJo  2 года назад

      For sure! That’s interesting regarding the prince of Wales, not sure why it degraded but there was a huge fire that raved the town. Maybe they just didn’t feel like rebuilding as the main mission was accomplished
