Ahhhh.   Brunswick, Georgia.  One of our favorite places to visit – in the spring and fall.   We love to go over to Jekyll Island and see all the old mansions, plantations  and the beach.  It’s like stepping back in time.   The first time we went the mansions were run down and the island was almost deserted.   Now they have fixed everything up, added golf courses and tourist stuff.   The mansions are now hotels or B&B’s.   It’s a great place to see sea turtle nests too.

10 am On the road.   We can take our time a bit as the appointment isn’t until 8:30 pm tomorrow and we only have 750 miles to go.

I love this picture with the clouds mirrored in the water.   

12 pm.  Passing through Savannah.   Another place we have been to several times and is a big favorite.   It’s a huge port city and they have dozens of shops on the water front and restaurants.   You can sit and watch big cargo ships go by.   There’s jugglers, musicians, artists and even a guy who makes roses out of corn stalk.   Such a neat place.  Greg likes all the civil war history.

Stopping for a bit of lunch in Manning South Carolina.  

DG:  Looking for some of Annie’s relatives, but so far no luck. 

My expert navigator found a truck stop close to a Mexican restaurant.   So guess what was for lunch?

Annie had the chicken chimichanga and I had shrimp Mexican.  Yes, they had shrimp Diablo but I’m not quite ready to try that again. Just yet. Anyway, all was delicious. Time to get back on the road. 

11 pm.   Stopping for the night in Ashland.  Virginia that is.   We got through Richmond without any traffic.   Hope we have good luck going through DC area tomorrow.   Only about 230 miles to go tomorrow.   

Don’t tell Precious I was looking at another chichuahau.    But it was cute.   

Turning in.   Goodnight y’all.  

DG:  Precious saw the picture. Now she is upset. 

That’s her, “I’m very hurt” look. Poor thing. She is feeling better. Thank God. 

Coming through Richmond it looks a lot different than the first time we visited. That would be back around 1994-95, don’t remember exactly but it was so long ago they sold driving tours on cassette tapes and whatever car we had at the time had a player. Seems like another lifetime now. It is an interesting city anyway. 

Not much traffic as Annie stated and though it was late when we got here there were still several parking spaces left.

We parked and watched some tv and now we’re sleepier than we were before the tv so it’s off to bed. 

Hope everyone is doing well. Goodnight and God bless.
