St George

St George has a much smaller population than St. Paul, at roughly a hundred or so people, and not quite as many fur seals, but has a larger population of seabirds.  I had the privilege of working in St George for about three weeks in the summer of 2005. It is a quaint old weathered town with a beautiful Russian Orthodox Church and bird cliffs right in town.
