Not much to report as today was a traveling day. We were sad to leave Aiken as we really enjoyed that town. But, we are now settled into an awesome state forest campground outside of Jacksonville, FL.  There are only 7 sites in this campground, and you can barely see your neighbor! Very cool and remote feeling. Supposed to be great hiking trails, so we’ll check those out tomorrow. Unfortunately, there is rain coming for Sunday, and then we move further south on Monday.

We were so happy to be able to spend time with Larry and Sandy Noël! They were so hospitable, inviting us to their home and even to a holiday party at the polo club.  We really enjoyed their company.  Here are some parting photos from South Carolina:

Party at the polo club:

We visited the National Wild Turkey Federation Museum, which welcomed Tessa to tour as well!  First picture is her posing with her almost-likeness on the welcome mat.  LOL

We aren’t sure if the discovery of this radio station is an omen or what …

Driving through Georgia’s cotton fields … I couldn’t help but think about all the people who suffered as slaves picking this stuff by hand …

There’s more to come! We are still at the beginning of our journey!

Love to all back home! ❤️
