Vegginator II -- North on the coast

Wednesday morning, Pawley's Island, SC

Yesterday morning we left Columbus and headed east to Savannah, after a quick bit of car maintenance. Monday evening when I shut off the veg, it seemed like the car ran much better on diesel, and I was concerned that the filter on the veg system neededd changing. So, back to the autoparts store for a filter wrench, and I made the change in their parking lot. It got a bit messy, but we finished up and were on our way.

We were in Savannah for lunch. It's a beautiful city -- lots of green, with parkways down the avenues and small parks at every other intersection. After lunch we strolled around for a while having a "who's the bigger tourist with a camera" competition.

Then we headed north along the coast on Highway 17. The route gave us a good look at coastal South Carolina, running in and out of resort areas and sections that look like they haven't changed much in 50 years. We made a scenic stop at a boat landing on the Edisto River, stopped for ice cream, and stopped to buy a sawgrass basket for Lynn.

Then on to Charleston. We had planned to stop there, but by the time we arrived the traffic was heavy and we were hot and all we could think about was getting out of town, so we stayed on 17 north. It took us over one of the most beatiful cable suspension bridges I've ever seen.

On to Pawley's Island.
