Perry To Holt Florida

Wednesday the 10th

Temp in the low 40's, cloudy but no rain forecast. We all got up around 7:30 AM, me and the kids to walk, Tina to get breakfast ready. We got on the road about 9:00 AM and stopped at the Super Walmart for some items Tina needed for our dinner. By 10:00 AM we're back on US-19 headed towards Tallahassee.

We reached I-10 and merged for the drive west to Holt Florida. Made one stop for fuel and one rest stop to give the kids a walk, then it was back on the road, eventually to turn off at the road to Holt. Two miles later we pulled into the Rivers Edge Campground beside the swollen Yellow River. While Tina registered I took the kids for a walk down to the river. Returning to the coach we found our spot and set up for the night.

By now it was close to 3:30 in the afternoon and getting a little late for any real cooking, so we made do with leftovers and a another one of Tina's great salads. Since we had very poor net connections and no TV reception I decided to wait until our next stop to update the blog and load photos. We watched a couple of movies, read a little then hit the sack. Since I was expecting freezing temperatures I left the heat on at low temps and ran a dribble in the sink to keep the pipes from freezing.
