As we are now into our last week in Savannah, GA, we are beginning to get back in the travel mode. I have done some trip planning with preferred routes. I also filled up the truck’s 50 gallon diesel fuel tank. It was great to be able to use my Kroger $.40 per gallon discount! I still need to wash the vehicles and wax the camper. I try to wax the camper about every 3-4 months. A big job! So, some work time ahead and more exploring as well. Continue reading “Old Ft. Jackson, Wormsloe Estate, and a Brewery”
We continue to love the charm of this cool old southern town. And we are very fortunate to being able to share some of the time with our family in from Texas.

Plus we tried many restaurants and a few bars for liquid refreshments as well. In this post we’ll review the rest of their visit and then saying our goodbyes.

The temperatures have been cooler, we experienced the St. Patrick’s Day celebration in this crazy town, and best of all, we had a visit from family from Texas!
