After a fun rest day in Savannah, GA. we left this morning for Brunswick, GA. We thought that we might have a partly cloudy morning, but it was worse it was foggy when we set off. Then about three miles from the hotel we were stopped dead in our "tracks" by a train. We were waiting on the train to move for about 20 minutes. It had a couple of false starts moving one way then the other but finally it moved and we were on our way.
The ride today was 82 miles and to be honest, probably the worst route for seeing any sights. Nothing really exciting to see or take pictures of during the first 44 miles. The only thing that interrupted the ride was stopping at a gas station to use the facilities, no Green Door for me today as I noticed that the smooched snakes were back. I saw two today. This is the first snakes I've seen since Virginia, no snake sightings in North or South Carolina.
Then ofter the SAG at mile 44, we stopped to take pictures of the smallest Church in America. We stayed long enough to take a couple of pictures because once again, we ran into very hungry mosquitoes!!
Our ride took us about 5 hours and 18 minutes not to bad for being held up by the train. The roads were pretty good, not too rough and traffic was pretty light too. We never really had much sun, but at least it didn't rain despite the threatening clouds.
So another day closer to our destination and the excitement of accomplishing my goal to cycle down the Eastern Seaboard.
