Today we left Durham about 11am. First stop... to see Pedro at South of the Border. Have you ever visited Pedro? If not, take a few minutes the next time you travel down I-95 into South Carolina. This is another one of those large collections of "things you'd never need" or even "thought you'd want to have". But, I just have to stop there once in a while to marvel at someone's example of capitalism gone a-mock.
I didn't really see anyone spending any of their hard earned dollars, mostly just several groups of folks taking pictures of themselves in front of the animal statues they have scattered about. The restrooms were clean. The food smelled pretty good as we walked by the Ice Cream stand ...I smelled hot french frys and hot dogs. Yum!!! I could hear those arteries hardening.
Anyway, it was a nice rest break for us.
We came on south and have stopped for the night at the New Green Acres RV Resort in Walterboro. So far, a nice park set in some tall pine trees. I don't think I'd want to be here in an ice storm. Not too bad of a price with AAA or Good Sam discounts. We have a pull-though site (easy parking) with 30amp electric, sewer,water and cable for $25.38 w/ tax. A little more than we like to pay but tomorrow night we'll be at the Orlando Thousand Trails which is free. So that helps us keep our cost down overall. We looked for a Passport American campground but there isn't one convenient to us at this area of I-95.
We're in for the night. Just a quiet New Years Eve for us.
Hope everyone has a fun, safe and HAPPY NEW YEAR. LOVE TO ALL ..DEB
