Some trip comments
Disney World is still there. The food at the German place in Epcot is great, but the price has gone
up to $39.50 each. Universal Studios sucks. I-95 in South Carolina sucks. Bounced the DVD player right out of the cabinet. Georgia did a nice job on I-95. North Carolina golf can be very muggy in July. Shooting at ProShots with brother, his and my wives, was fun. I'm getting much better at backing the 5th wheel. Truck got 11.8 mpg pulling the trailer (about 10,500 lbs) Just can't wait to download all the nice stuff on rec.boats. John (Gun Nut) H. -- Hope you're having a great day! |

Cant wait to see the full detailed report, complete with photos. ;-) Where did you camp, and what did you think of it? Is SC 95 really that bad? Is there a good alternate route to bypass 95? I don't see one on the map. |

I forget where we re-connected to I-95 but it was probably in Virginia. Not a time saver by any stretch of the imagination. Lights and stops all along the way. But, it was a refreshing change from I-95 with a lot of local "stuff" to view. |

Not a route I'd take everyday but it was different. Glad we did it once. I am still planning a trip down to the Isle of Palms area in South Carolina to see my son and his family. Mrs.E. flies down, but I don't do airplanes anymore unless absolutely necessary and even then with much hesitation. Haven't made the drive south on I-95 for a few years now and am not sure I am looking forward to it. I've heard horror stories. |

It's gotten to be a real bitch. Took us almost three hours to get here from Richmond. It used to be a 90 minute trip. John (Gun Nut) H. -- Hope you're having a great day! |

We'd initially planned to stop at Charleston on the way back and catch the fireworks. But, that must be a popular 4 July destination, 'cause all the campgrounds were full. We started looking about the middle of June. Too late. John (Gun Nut) H. -- Hope you're having a great day! |

It's only 1.5 hours for us, we go down several times a year. The Market Pavilion Hotel is very nice, and if you just have to eat something other than seafood Grill 225 in the lobby is a killer steak place. |
