Good-bye, Florida. Hello, Georgia

We left Florida today.  We were in Florida for 30 days, arriving on March 28. We spent a few days in the Tampa area; a week in Naples; a week in Miami (also visiting Key West); two days in Okeechobee; four days in Canaveral; and, five days in St.Augustine. That was traveling along the perimeter of the state with a dot in the middle. Now we have a couple of weeks planned for Georgia starting here in Savannah before we travel up to Atlanta and then into the mountains of northeast Georgia before heading into South Carolina.

We travelled about 220 miles today, 170 of them towing. We entered Georgia about 1pm and stopped for lunch at the Georgia Welcome Center.

Preparing for lunch. That's our foldable cooler that got at the Container store. 

We got to our campground, Savannah Oaks, about 3:30pm, unhitched and looked around. The Ogeechee River flows about 20 feet from the back of our Airstream.  I don't think there are any alligators in the river.

A fishing dock.  Our campsite is just to the left of where Frederick is standing.

Looking up the river.

In places it is very shallow.  There is a measure on the dock that indicates the water is 3 1/2 feet deep.

The only wildlife we saw.
