Grayton Beach State Park

February 8,2005
Grayton Beach is another great beach, but for some reason we can’t find the photos from this location. We met a gentleman with a Sprinter, he had it converted by a company in Texas. He had a plan of what he wanted. His ideas were no bathroom or stove. The workman ship was very good. With limited space, everything is a compromise, it just depends on what you want. I am sure we will see more Sprinters, they are becoming very popular.

Through travel I first became aware of the outside world; it was through travel that I found my own introspective way into becoming a part of it.

February 9, Ash Wednesday.

After spending the night at Grayton Beach SP we headed to the highest point in Florida, and no it is not an overpass on the Interstate. It is located in Lakewood and stands 345’ high.
With Mardi Gras yesterday, we thought it was safe to venture into New Orleans. It was a good drive so we settled into Jude Travel Park, 5 miles from the French Quarter. Out new GPS is wonderful! We just program in an address and “The Boss” talks to us, giving directions and scolding if we stop for a bathroom/gas stop. We signed up for a tour for tomorrow, since neither of us has ever been in New Orleans it seems like a good idea.
