From Savannah to Indianapolis

This was the bridge leaving Savannah. It was beautiful, but you'd have to know how much I don't like bridges to appreciate the picture. Ask me sometime about our near death trip over the Hudson River on the
Tappan Zee Bridge.


The people in Columbia, SC were great and we had a lot of fun at the show. When we left on Monday morning the fog had rolled in, but it didn't last long. We knew we needed to drive all the way home, because they were predicting a nasty snow and ice storm overnight Monday into Tuesday morning. We made it home safely, and sure enough, it started raining about an hour later and soon turned to snow.

This morning we left for Indianapolis and it was snowing and sleeting most of the way. It was cold and windy, but we made it without any problems. It's supposed to be in the 40's and 50's for the weekend, so we shouldn't have any problem getting home on Sunday night.

Savannah

After rushing so to leave home for these two shows, it was great having a few days between them to relax and visit Savannah, GA. Savannah is beautiful.



The Riverwalk is a fun tourist location...lots of shops...

but walking on these stones is a challenge.

The churches and houses are just gorgeous.



We're off to Columbia, SC today for our convention there this weekend.

A Very Busy Month

After arriving home from Texas, we were really busy preparing for our February shows. We left on January 31 for Lawrenceville, GA (Atlanta suburb) and returned home on Monday, February 4th. It was a quick trip down and back with no time for fun, so not much to write about.

It was a frenzy getting ready for our next trip to Clearwater, FL and Columbia, SC. We were planning to leave on Tuesday, the 12th, but the weather forecasters were predicting 3-5 inches of snow and then freezing rain and ice (and we were planning to take our RV), so they scared us into leaving on Monday. Ohio did get some nasty weather overnight on Monday and we had great driving weather, so we were glad we left when we did.

The mountains through West Virginia.

It wasn't very clear, but you can still see the layers of the mountains.


Tunnels through the mountains still seem strange to us after so many years in CA. Out west you have to go over the mountains...here you tunnel through them.

Our trip is going well and we should be in Clearwater, FL tomorrow so we can set up for the show on Friday.
