On the Road

On January 20, 2010 we were finally able to leave Moundsville and head south.  Of course, it started raining at Charleston, WV and rained steadily for the next two days.  Sometimes it poured so hard we could barely see.  We made it over the North Carolina state line the first night.  We missed the rest stop where you can camp overnight, so we stopped at the Cracker Barrel in Jonesville, NC.  They were gracious enough to let us camp in their parking lot the first night.  We got an early start the next day and made Savannah, Ga. around  5 pm that day.  At first we weren’t going to spend any time there, but the rain stopped and the next day was supposed to be halfway decent.  We decided to take the trolley and tour the city.  We did the tour and got off for lunch at the river.  It was a fantastic lunch.  Walking down the street, we saw this cute photo.

We were also able to watch several of these large ships go down the river.

Since the trolley was get on and off – we got back on the trolley and went through the tour again.  This time we got off at a few points to take photos.  It had gotten cold – around 40 and we just had on light jackets.  Still, it was after 5 pm before we got back to the motorhome.  Here are some of the photos we took in no particular order.

I was sorry we didn’t have the time to go in any of the museums, walk the city market, and do some other things.  Hopefully we can go again when the flowers are in bloom and it’s nicer.  We stopped because we thought we might take another route home and wanted to at least get to see some of the city.
