Beaufort Twilight Run




Jamie and Lindsay brought their kids to Habersham to participate in the 5K race that supports one of the local schools. Jamie, Connor and Austin ran the race. Things were happening pretty fast and I didn't get a good pic of Austin. Sorry buddy. The boys finished in the top 1/4 of the pack, Jamie not so much. Their time was pretty impressive considering that the 3.1 mile route was the furthest either one of them had ever run. This might become an annual event.

Home in Habersham

I'm a day late posting this. Things get pretty hectic moving back into the house. The big freeze knocked back a few plants but most of Jenny's favorites were in the garage or in the shed and they appear to have faired pretty well. The MP has a few issues that we will need to address but if we didn't that would be weird. Here are some trip stats. 2424 miles. We filled up 11 times and we were forced to pay $3.98 once. We were out 30 days, camped in 5 state parks, 4 commercial camps, 1 National Park and 1 city park. We used nearly 5 gallons of DEF, and I really need a haircut. I was sick when we left and I needed a haircut then but couldn't get one. Jenny likes it but I don't. Davejennyjournal will be off the air for awhile. We really have nothing planned until next summer and we really don't have any plans yet for that trip. We are thinking California. Signing off.

Yemassee KOA




This place is only about 30 minutes from home. There was nothing interesting that happened today. Interstate 95 wasn't even too bad. We should be back in the Sham pretty early tomorrow and the trip will be over. All in all things went pretty well but the sunny South Florida weather that we were hoping for didn't materialize. We did, however, avoid the deep freeze that covered the Southeast in snow. I didn't take a single picture today but I'll look back through the pictures I took on the trip and post something.

Hanna Park day 2



Our big event today was Disc golf. The course is hacked out of a primeval jungle with narrow fairways and impenetrable rough. As is typical, there was a lot of confusion concerning the course layout. After that adventure we drove into Atlantic Beach and ate at a Peruvian restaurant that served mostly Ceviche. There were many different variations. After that we did laundry which is always fun. Tomorrow we move to a KOA that is close to home. We always stop there to flush the holding tanks and prepare the MP for storage. Tomorrow will be our last night.

Kathryn Abbey Hanna Park



This park is in Jacksonville. It is a city operated park. There is a lot of beach, a disc golf course and great trails for hiking or biking. We have been here twice before so I rode my favorite trail. Very nice. I took that first pic during our hike yesterday. I thought it was blog worthy but some how it failed to make it into yesterday's post. That dog is a Border Collie. There is a couple camped across from us who were running that dog through its repertoire of tricks. That dog is very talented. In the pic he is springing off of her foot and doing a flip. Lindsay, I'm thinking you should try to teach Omar something like that. We are here all day tomorrow.

Wekiva day 2



Another day of visiting with Mike and Linda. Mike had to fly home this afternoon to attend a friend's funeral. Jenny and I did a hike in a nature preserve near here and we were lucky enough to see a couple of Sand Hill Cranes. Only my second time and Jenny's first. Right before Mike left for the airport I took that picture of the Everett Florida brain trust. The dog pic is Chief, Mike's Rottweiler and another pic is the interior of their rather large movable home. We head further North tomorrow.

Wekiva Falls RV resort


This campground is North of Orlando. Our campsite is next to Mike and Linda. We had a good visit and a fantastic meal. We are here tomorrow.
