6/21/12 WE started our month and
1/2 camping trip at 9am, headed for
Eufala AL. We met up with our friends
just as we got off I 10 on us 231 for Eufala.
We stopped at a Subway with Ann
and Mike W. for lunch, when we went back
to the truck, it would not start.
Henry's key was stuck in the ignition and we could not work
anything. Mike W. tried to jump start us
but it did not work. Henry called the
Dodge dealer in Mariana and was told we still had roadside insurance, call the
tow truck. In the mean time the
Philbricks meet with us and also waited for the tow truck . The tow truck guy
was able to jump us and get us going again.
The Weirs took our boxes of food and the Philbricks took our case of
wine, in case we were going to be delayed.
We went to the Mariana Dodge Dealer, it was the battery, everything was
under warrenty. Now it is 5pm and we
head to WhiteOak st park. We arrive
around 7pm, it is beautiful. We are on a
site with beach front white sand and water.
We are all there, Roots, Philbricks, Weirs and Murphys; Kathy G and Rob
arrive around 7:30. We dine on Wine and
BLT'S for dinner.
6/22 Kayaking first thing - before it got too hot, then a tour of the city of Eufala ,
visited the chamber of commerce and the Fendell House, the homes are
beautiful. I did a little fishing, no
bites. We all were inundated with ants,
I have never seen so many. We all purchased
bug spray. We had a joint dinner again,
steaks and wine .
6/23 Today we decided to go tour the Little Grand Canyon. We decided to walk the 3&1/2 mile
tour- boy was it hot- it ended up that
we only had to hike about 2 miles .
6/24 Sunday I always hate the pack up day. Everyone was packing up most of the morning
but we did manage to have that great big breakfast, bacon eggs, potatoes and onions, sausage and
fruit. The Philbricks headed off for
Tenn. early, about 10am. We left our
trailer at the site and drove back to Daphne,
I did not want to put off my mammogram for fear something might go wrong
if I did not go ahead and get pressed!
We were able to pick up our passports just in case Canada was in our near
future.
6/25 Jumped back in the truck and
headed for Eufala, it took us until 3pm
to get connected and dumped and on the road to Little Ocmulgee st. pk. We arrived at 8pm, Henry was able to get us in a site and
connedted in about 10 min, thank goodness.
We were tired and hungry.
6/26 We are staying @ Little
Ocmulgee s.p. It is truly beautiful. Golf
course, mini golf, lake splash pad--fountains .
No one is here and looks like rain.
We did our shopping today, Goody's , Fred's, Beall's and Harvey's. More ant spray.
6/27 Now we are on the way to
Hunters Island, St. Park in South Carolina right on the Atlantic. The parking site was a real challenge. I mean a real challenge. It was a nice little walk to the beach, kids
everywhere, a real family place.
6/28 Coffee on the beach and a long
walk, it just doesn’t get any better. A
visit to Beaufort, some Historical sites but mostly trying to fix our internet
supply. We had a lovely lunch at
Gilligans, shrimp. Back to the beach.
6/29 Coffee on the beach again and a
long walk to the hunting Island Lighthouse, then pack up. A real challenge getting out of our
site. On to Myrtle beach.
