April 16, 2008, our seventh day on the road!
On the move again! We left King George’s RV resort at 10:25 AM after watching a video about strange things in Minnesota such as a large ball of yarn and a large collection of stuff. Kay had gotten the video from the campground and wanted to watch it before we left so we did.
It was a pleasant ride and we became aware that there was traffic on the road as GA was doing a lot of construction. Frank noted that FL has completed most of the their construction which was nicer. We stopped for lunch and found that we had forgotten to put the TV on the floor. The TV took care of the problem by putting itself on the floor. It cracked the case but the picture tube seems to be ok.
We arrived at The Oaks at Point South Campground in Yemassee, SC after a total of four hours on the road. Upon arriving we could see why it was called the Oaks, the campground is nestled in a large grove of oak trees and is very pretty. Once Frank had hooked up to the sewer, electric and water he discovered that the TV no longer had any sound. His solution is to replace the TV once he gets home. With the new changes coming down the pike it is time anyway.
Later we decided to take a walk around the park and found a path, which circled a lake, marked with a sign "Don’t feed the alligators". Frank noted that they seem to want the alligators hungry so that they would attack the humans so we kept our distance from the 13ft alligator that we saw.

When we had gotten half way around the lake Frank saw a Denny’s and decided that we could have dinner now as it was 5:00PM. After dinner we finished our walk and came back to the campground where we met a couple of Airstreamers, James & Angela Tauras from Tolland, CT. We spent the evening talking and finding that we seemed to know many of the same people and had been to same parts of the country. Nice people!
