Our brief stay in Miami is over...it was really nice to see...and would come back if we were staying in a hotel on the beach....otherwise the traffic in and out takes some of the fun out of it.

We decided we better stay on the Toll Roads for about an hour to bypass Miami and Fort Lauderdale where there was an airshow going on so the A1A Highway we wanted to be on would be way too busy.

We have driven through the following states so far on this trip,
Washington
Oregon
California
Arizona
New Mexico
Texas
Louisiana
Mississippi
Alabama
and Florida...

FLORIDA ....HAS THE WORST DRIVERS YET!!!
The Worst!!!

But we dodged it all....avoided most of the traffic...and pulled over in West Palm Beach for a really quick break.  Now this is one way to brighten up your office window.  These are windows in the City Hall Building...cute!





Nice area but with the RV...only a quick stop downtown.


Back on the road...more bridges and inter-coastal waterways and ocean....


And finally....after many many miles of beach....a dog friendly beach...the entire thing...the sand has changed ...the colour of the ocean is slowly changing...



We knew the nice weather was going to be brief....and it was....





I was worried maybe there was going to be a tornado warning!!!


but only lots and lots of rain...we finally arrived at the State Park and set up in the rain....
the blowing sideways rain...the "Gracie you are not going out for a walk" rain...

After being in the truck for so long....someone is frisky!!!

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...
