The first thing that happened this morning was Emily left our house at 3am and started her drive down to meet up with us. Meanwhile yesterday we had decided to leave at 6:15 because the farther we go South the later the sun comes up. But we ended up leaving at 6:25. We road 22 miles to breakfast at Okeefenokee Restaurant. David got two omelettes. We had a really nice waitress and really good food. Left the restaurant at 9:30 and road 38 more miles to the FL state line! At onetime we went over some train tracks and right after we passed the bars went down and the train was coming! The last mile to the state line we all raced. David was in first and dad was in second I (Ellie) was third grandpa was fourth and Jenna was fifth (mom didn’t race.) Grandma and Lil got us all Orange juice. Then we all ate lunch and left for the last 30 miles to the campground. Got to the campground at 4:45. We immediately put our swimsuits on and went swimming at the pool. Emily got here soon after 6:00 and we all ate and then went swimming again! We played water baseball.
Stats
98 miles, average speed 13.3, not much wind. We hit 1000 miles total for the trip! That means we have around 250 to go.

Thank you Lord for giving us safe travels.

Oh so thankful Emily hooked up with her family. I always worry about people traveling, It is my nature. I hope you all continue to have safe travels and make beautiful memories. Hugs around.
