Yesterday I took my final, for now, early morning walk along the Intracoastal Waterway Park. It was another beautiful morning with lots of sunshine and temps in the high 60's when I started out at about 7:15 and mid 70's by the time I got home. We've been walking 3+ miles most mornings and it takes us over an hour.
You will notice that my FL pictures all show bright sunshine. That's what we've had for the past 7 months. It only rained briefly a few times. It is very, very dry.
This past winter there was a lot of red tide and we didn't go to the beach much. This spring it has been quite windy and rough. The beach is delightful and the water temp. is hovering in the high 70's.
Last night we enjoyed our "last night supper" at the Crow's Nest. It was a magnificent sunset.
We dined with Allan's sister, Terry, and her good guy, Ernie. It has been great fun to have them in Venice all winter. We look forward to many more.
We go through quite a process to ready our house for summer. It takes about 2 full days of cleaning and closing inside and out.
This morning we were up at 6:00 and on the road before 8:00. We stopped for a quick breakfast at the Wee Blew Inn and headed north on the highway. Below is a picture of us at our first rest stop. All is going well with the truck and trailer.
Shortly after crossing over into Georgia we saw a plume of smoke ahead. When we got close we were astounded by the sight of this tractor trailer with the cab burning. Lucky for us it was on the south bound side of I 95.
It was very hot today while we were driving. At one point the thermometer in our truck registered 97 degrees!
We are spending the night in Richmond Hill, GA in Fort McAllister State Park. We arrived at about 4:30 and got set up. Then we contacted Allan's sister, Elvira, and she and Sal met us for dinner. It is always nice to squeeze in a short visit with family.
We will be off again in the morning, headed to Williamsburg, VA.
