I was out for my morning stroll with Gracie....and it came to me why we love camping so much....it's like that front-porch community...much like the homes down South here...the wrap around veranda with the rocking/deck chairs....it's like that....as you stroll the campsite....everybody either says hi...or nods...or gives a little wave....and as you drive out of the campsite with your RV....they all wave goodbye....have a safe trip....

On the move North again...only 4 or 5 hours but getting closer to New York!

We drove through Myrtle Beach again to see what was happening...but apparently it's too early for the bikers...or most of them...



As with this area....we drove across many many more bridges and waterways...still some swamp land but we are noticing it less and less. We just don't tire of the views....





It appears we are getting closer to our campsite as Gracie is 
awake and looking ready to get out of the truck

We hadn't been to a Passport America RV place in a bit...been doing quite a few State Parks. Got pretty excited because they say they have 2 pools....yay!!!.... but they failed to state they are both closed due to Health Inspections being done in the next few days!!! ug....


The park itself is nice...lots of grass and there are 5 or 6 lakes and then a waterway which takes you out to the river.  Typical of these places about 95% are full-time or seasonal so I think we were about the only overniters here.



We have been really lucky because even with all the water and swamps we have been near...the bugs have been really good so far. They say they spray lots for the mosquitoes...so that's great...but that also kills the fireflies......which would explain why I have yet to see one on this trip....

And where there is water....

Funny thing we have only seen a handful of fish being caught on this trip so far....great for the fish mind you....but not so great for all these fishermen!

These two guys were so cute....they were never more than about 6 inches apart....
A girl we talked to said they are never apart....she says they are "boyfriend and girlfriend"....

"Where you go...I go...."


Haven't seen one of these in a while...I would play but I already slipped on the bridge and fell so might not be a great idea....and besides....I might spill my vino!!!

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...
