Blythe Island Regional Park, Brunswick GA Trip Day 3 Travel Day 3 Another very smooth easy start of the day. We were the first RV to leave Ellerbe Farm, and Harold was up and working before we left. He had already collect eggs from the chickens, and was delivering them to the campers that had ordered them. Getting out of Ellerbe's was very easy, The jeep was still connected, we did not have power, water or sewer hooked up, so all we had to do was pull the slides in, and lift the leveling jacks. Both of them are done by pushing buttons, Angel handled this while I checked the lights and that everthing outside was clear. I did find one of turn signals on the jeep was not working. I did some trouble shooting but ... read more

Today is a travel day, and so I finally have a chance to sit down, gather my thoughts (which seem a little scattered today, so I apologize ahead of time!), and reflect over the past week or so. After leaving the Vero Beach area, we spent a number of days pushing ahead to cover some ground. Not that we are honestly in much of a hurry to leave the sunny south. But time is slipping by, and we do want to get back to Dover at least a few weeks before school starts. And the coastline is a whole lot longer than I anticipated, when broken into 30-50 miles/day chunks! And, there are still many things to see in Georgia, South and North Carolina and beyond. My dear “fellow boater” friend, Nancy, and I were chatting ... read more

Kayak and moving Happy Birthday Lisa Friday was the day I was going to get out on the river. There was so much going on all week that I just didn't have time but today was the day. I walked with Oscar over to the river to decide where I would put the kayak in and where to park the van. The spot scoped out and home I went to inflate the kayak and get myself dressed in shorts and my water shoes. The spot I had planned to park the van was now taken so I put the kayak on the bank, drove back to my site and left the van and walked back to the river. Getting in was easier than I anticipated and off I was floating on the river. I headed upstream ... read more

Good-bye's are never easy and the one with our son, Cory, and his family is so difficult. It is wonderful when we are with them but when we have to leave, it becomes so apparent how much we miss them. ????. I hope we will see them again soon. Last evening, we went to the Mellow Mushroom restaurant. Rachael is working there on her college break as their hostess......And she is "The Hostess with The Mostest". The food there is delicious and bountiful. We got on the road @ 9:30 the morning. For a moment I was nervous because I couldn't find my pocketbook. This is getting to be a bit much and way too stressful. Fortunately, it was quickly located in our car but geez, it is not helping my blood pressure. Perhaps it is ... read more

2/27/2014 - Got up this morning and rode to Savanah first to the Eighth Air Force Museum, Savanah River Walk and Speed's Kitchen. The Eighth Air Force Museum is definitely a good see. If around Savanah go to the museum. Had lunch at Sonic :-). Did the Savanah River Walk - very interesting, the old buildings, the small shops, the restaurants, and such. Earlier, Mike Paul had given Shelby T and autographed copy of his book, "Bridge Over Cedar Creek'. Very good read, Mike has a unique writing style where you feel as if you are in the story with him. Mike, Diane, and two of their friends - Steve and Vickie met us at Speed's Kitchen. If you are anywhere around Shellman's Bluff/Townsend, GA this is a must stop. The restaurant is several classroom trailer ... read more
