G&T's Excellent Adventure

Wed., Nov. 3, 2021 thru Thurs., Nov. 4, 2021

Wed. morning (11/3) we left Huntington Beach State Park and traveled 216 miles south to arrive at Skidaway Island State Park in Savannah, GA. It was a pretty ride mostly on US 17 before getting on I-95 for the last 50 miles. This is a gorgeous state park which we’ve stayed at on previous occasions when in this area. Tonight is the last night for the six of us to be together before Pearl & Marti head for home tomorrow. After having dinner in our respective tiny homes, we convened over at Cheryl & Joe’s for one last campfire before Pearl & Marti peel away from us tomorrow. The girls enjoyed a bikini shot (thanks to Cheryl) while the guys had brandy. We spent several hours laughing and chatting. Then said our goodbyes to Pearl & Marti before we see them again in San Antonio in February!

We’re only here for two nights so on Thursday Gary & I opted not to go into Savannah. We’ve visited that beautiful city on several occasions and wanted to have the opportunity to explore the state park more this time.

We had a morning of getting caught up on some phone calls and blog writing, and then walked the 3-mile Big Ferry Trail loop in the afternoon. Lovely trail through woods with water views, board walks, and an observation tower. Plus we saw remnants of some Earth Works and a liquor still. Later in the day we enjoyed adult beverages with Cheryl & Joe.

Tomorrow we move on to our five weeks in Florida. First stop: St. Augustine!
