We got a late start this morning (11:30) because we were watching CBS Sunday Morning. We’ve been on US 301 most of the last two days. It is much more interesting than an interstate and we don’t get as tired or bored with driving; yes, yes, we do slow down through the towns along the way but we also read the AAA book that points out highlights of the area. Today we stopped at South of the Border (You’ve gotta love that place just for its ability to stay open how many years!) http://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/2211, drove through the town with an Ava Gardner Museum http://www.avagardner.org/ , followed roads near Sherman’s march to the sea and read those highway plaques http://www.sonofthesouth.net/leefoundation/shermans-march-to-the-sea.htm , didn’t get to stop at a Tobacco Museum or a Mill http://www.johnstoncountync.org/listings/?linkcode=2.5.E because it’s Sunday and they were closed, and passed old train depots in all states of repair – or disrepair. BTW, it has rained on us each day since Friday. BTW, stopped at a campground tonight so we can see Lost: The Final Transmission.
