Hello travelin BN'ers The family and I are headed to Amelia Island for a little R&R this Labor Day weekend. Any advice about resturants, Bars, and or can't miss sights and activities would be a big help. TIA

I love Amelia Island (and Connie) ! Fernandina is a very quiet little seaside town with a quaint downtown and a couple of good restuarants - I know Connie will tell you the names of the ones downtown. Oh yeah, don't forget to go to Barbara Jean's - they have the best crab cakes I have ever had! Have phun!

And what better time than on Labor Day Weekend? PHINS is putting on a party on Saturday, Sept 3, at the Shartran's house, starting at 4 pm. Live entertainment will be provided by Jimmy Parrish from 6 to 10 pm. Food will be burgers, hot dogs, and fries. The cost will be $5 per person (age 10 and above) and free for age 9 and below. You are requested to RSVP to budreau2@bellsouth.net with the number of people in your party and what side dish you are bringing. Also, please bring lawn chairs if you have 'em. They have a pool, so bring swimwear and towels. Take I-295 to exit 30, Dunn Ave. Head west on Dunn Ave. approx. 1/2 mile. Turn right on V.C. Johnson Road. Go 1.2 miles to house number 12359 (They're the house after the big white fountain.)
