Reluctantly moving on...managed to get ourselves 2 nights at St. George Island State Park, about 4 or so hours away.

I love these big area markers...that is exactly what the beaches look like...

Joe happened about an area yesterday that we wanted to stop at.  Luckily found a place to park the RV's...not always an easy task, but we were lucky today.



Really cool place with stores/restaurants along the way...boats everywhere...lots to see.


This is an enormous mound of sand...our waitress said they are re-building the 
area back up again with a park and biking/walking trails... it will be so nice when it's done.




They are super dog-friendly here...dogs can go in all the restaurants and they even leave bowls of treats!!! Dog Heaven!





Drove through Panama City Beach...really really touristy...nice...but pretty busy.  You could rent scooters for $2.00 an hour??? How can they make money on that one??


We saw many of these little things driving around...

There were water parks amusement park stuff everywhere...little too much for us.

I just love their advertising!!!

and another crazy bridge...

and Gracie...finding a new way to sleep...

and then a series of really long bridges....the longest one being 4 miles!! Man they know how to make bridges down here! There are signs on the bridge to watch for birds...there are so many and they are just flying right along side of you and I guess with the distance....many fly into traffic.. we saw quite a few dead ones on the way...



We arrived at St. George State Park in time to enjoy some sunshine...




T....here is a tree for you to paint....

It's been windy for quite some time....like weeks...this morning it's pretty calm...but they are calling for more wind in the afternoon..... Decided to ride our bikes into St. George and check it out...really small casual little beach city... More white sandy beaches....this time with lots of shells...spent a good hour shell hunting... We saw lots of crab holes in the ground...apparently they are called "ghost crabs" and they only come out at night and they are almost transparent.. I was so excited when I spotted this shell.....but somebody was inside... and this baby crab on the outside!!! They have these really cute "tiny narrow rental homes".... these are the first skinny homes we have seen!! Saw dolphins in the distance for the first time today....super excited....George has to "make me move one" ....because I could stay all day and watch them... Biked out on the fishing bridge....this one goes out qui...

Today is the day....we must leave New York....it`s been great... it`s been expensive....and it`s time to go... Gracie may have wanted to visit this place...but no Dog Spa for her... Today is also the day we will part paths with Brother Joe...we will head West....because we must....he will have another direction...we will miss him....has been a great time travelling with him. It took us almost an hour to wind our way out of Jersey City...it was raining...and I swear Roxanne had us going in circles....there was detour after detour...and some ridiculously narrow streets.....but we made it......we had no idea where we were...the skies were grey and dismal and we just seemed to be going around and around..... And then this crazy horrible sign appeared...WTF....WEST!!! What is that!!!! It wasn`t long before we left the busy streets for rolling hill of trees...it is just so green and so hilly.... I love this one...it`s the first we have ever seen...... ...

It's a pretty fitting day to leave the beach...it's raining....it's still warm...but it's still raining.... Taking a ferry today instead of dealing with the traffic...won't take any time off our trip...but will take the miles off our trip...cost wise...not too sure...but if it can eliminate a few hours on the road in the city...it's worth it. This bird decided to build a nest in the busiest place ever!!! Right at the Ferry Terminal... And all along the way....Dophins.....Yay!! I will never tire of seeing them playing in the water! So before long we are on the New Jersey Turnpike.... which just means .....toll....after toll.....after toll.... and you have no idea which lane you are supposed to be in... Nightmare! Marty!!!.... You will love this....... You know all those American dimes and nickels I was saving.... Finally had a chance to use them.... Oh the look on his face when I gave him $6.00 in dimes and nickels!!! W...
