Today Mom and Dad went to Charleston, SC with their RV friends, Bob and Kathy. They stopped at The Moon Pie Store to pick up some official Moon Pies. They bought Lenny and me a Moon Pie toy to play with. But, they did not get us an RC Cola. Whoever heard of a Moon Pie without an RC Cola. A Moon Pie without an RC Cola is almost Un-American. We are currently at the Big Water RV Resort in Summerton, SC. We will be here until Sunday then we head back to Fair Play, SC for another 3 weeks. Dad has some appointments and we will get to see Dave & Pat and Trevor & Sharon. Thursday, Mom and and Dad are taking us to the Congaree National Park for the day. That should be fun because we will also get Happy Meals. Its been very cool here but a least its not raining. During our three weeks at Fair Play, before coming here, we had more than 10 inches of rain. There wasn't much outside playing there. Hopefully the major rains are behind us. Time for a Moon Pie, later folks.
Today we arrived in Wauchula, Florida. We will be in Florida for the next 4 weeks. Sunday we left South Carolina and spent two nights in the Savannah, Georgia area. Mom and Dad left Lenny and me at home while they did some touristy things. Sunday afternoon, they toured Fort Frederica, a fort and settlement established by James Oglethorpe when he settled the Georgia colony. Monday they went into Savannah and had lunch at Mrs Wilkes' Boarding House. Mom and Dad were there 14 years ago and always wanted to go back. People stand in line to eat there. It is boarding house style, 10 people to a table, and the food is served like the old boarding house. When people are finished eating, they are required to carry their plates and utensils to the washroom. After lunch, Mom and Dad went to tour Fort Pulaski. When they got there, they found that a movie, directed by Robert Redford, was being filmed there. The movie, "The Conspirator" will be about the Lincoln assassination. The cast and crew broke for lunch so Mom and Dad got to meet Robert Redford. Mom even got her picture taken with him. He said the movie will be out sometime next year. It is hard to believe that he is now 73 years old. After Savannah, we stopped in St Augustine for one night on our way here. Now that Lenny is in Florida, this is the 29th state he has visited since becoming a member of the gypsy band. Since arriving here, we have already run into 3 couples and pets that we had met at other parks.
