I was still reluctant to go to Florida since I'm doing so much stuff around here and don't want to leave. During breakfast I pushed the button to reserve a Comfort Suites room in Jacksonville. In the morning I went to the Credit Union to get money then I went to Lowes and bought some fencing. At home I planted the marigolds and zinnias then I installed the fencing to keep the rabbits out of the flower bed. We'll see how this works. I left at 12:30 after stopping into the greenhouse to say goodbye. Felicia was there helping Libbie plant plugs. The trip was fairly good. In Savannah I hit blinding rain and whiteout conditions with the heavy rain nd the spray from cars and trucks. On the other side of Savannah it was like emerging from a cave - the sun was shining and trip was uneventful. I only stopped for gas once in Florence, SC at 2.09 but I didn't need much. Also got some McDonald hamburgers but then I got onto the wrong ramp for I-95 and headed North up to the next exit which was TV road and got turned around in the correct direction. I got into the Jax motel at 7:15. It was a beautiful place - a brand new Comfort Suites. Walked next door and had a Wendys spicy chicken with a side salad. The hotel has WiFi so I went online and did email. |
