Remains of Rat Island Fort

It wasn't until we returned to the ship that I learned that this fort was called Rat Island Fort. "Oh, yeah, THAT's it. I couldn't remember" said my husband.

Right.... How convenient. 'Cause we both know there was no way in hell he was going to get me up there if I knew THAT!!

While we were walking around the remains of the fort, through the one-foot deep undergrowth, I was once again praying, "No bugs, God, please no bugs. Or snakes.". I wasn't even thinking about rats. But if I had known....I would'a been on a beach sipping an umbrella drink instead.
