I got back into making ‘egg bites’ again on this trip. This time with the last of a slice of ham, some asparagus tips and cheddar cheese. So breakfast was egg bites with my homemade bran muffins. This gorgeous morning bodes well for a hot day. We still have Brunswick itself to prowl around soContinue reading “Day 6 – Blythe Island, SC; Brunswick, SC”

We have been here several timesContinue reading “Day 3 – Yemassee, SC to Blythe Island (Brunswick, Ga)”

Our biggest traffic hurdles so close to home are getting around the triumvirate cities in our path south: Philadelphia, Baltimore and Wasington, DC. It’s Saturday on a long weekend butContinue reading “Day 1. Doylestown to Roanoke Rapids, NC”
