Our First 5 Days on the Road
We had hoped to depart on Friday, February 1st. However, Old Man Winter moved in and stayed the ENTIRE day and night. On Saturday, John woke early and, with the help of our buddy Craig Higgs, the driveway was cleared and we managed to move out around 0830. The drive through the states of NY and PA had been our worst fear and the day turned out just fine - weather was cloudy but no snow and no freezing rain. We were 'good to go' once we got into MD and West VA. We stayed that first night in a Flying J just inside VA. Sunday we moved onto Florence, SC and booked in at a KOA. This gave John a chance to fill and and re-fill water tanks and get the RV equipment into full operation. This also gave us a short-hop to Savannah, GA where were spent the afternoon and all of the next day touring around this charming city full of southern history and commercial marine life at the wharf. Weather was in the 80's. Today we ran about 3 hours into Florida and we are now on Anastasia Island about 3/4 mile from the St. Augustine Beach. We walked the beach this afternoon at low tide so it was an easy walk on the sand. Tomorrow we'll take the Jeep about 50 miles south to Flagler Beach to see where John's parents used to live in the 70's. More later after that trip down memory lane. Pics to follow.
