Wanna-B-RV(ers)

There was no plan to this trip. The only thing even remotely close to a plan was my idea that I wanted to go somewhere warm, which (in December) - meant Florida. We didn't make it all the way to Florida because Georgia was already warm enough - days were in the 70's, and that was good enough for me. Plus - they have Palm Trees out there!

We headed out on Dec 14th and drove straight down for about 250 miles (the first day) and wound up staying in a hotel parking lot the first night. (As we've figured out, hotel parking lots are just about the quietest/calmest place to overnight, especially if it's a bit away from the Interstate). We then proceeded onwards and were soon in North Carolina. Despite not having a plan, it was my idea to drive South for a while further before getting off the Interstate and switching to local roads. On board we have a book titled "Road Trip USA", and this book advocates doing just that - travelling the byways and actually "seeing something" rather than zooming past rest areas. By the time we made it to South Carolina, we headed over to Rt 15 and followed the coast line to Charleston, a pleasant and quaint city on the water.
