Made it to Columbia

We had a good nights sleep at Jeanne's and woke up to homemade breakfast! Before we left we went to see my grandmother, and showed her our rig. She too had taken a cross country trip. In the time leading up to our trip we spent time with her talking of travels. Mildred, my grandmother shared stories and her photo album of her trip across the United States. She and my papa took the trip in their RV, a long while ago. I told her just before we left that I hope she knew that I got my traveling bug from her:)

We also stopped to see some friends on the way out of Greenville. Elaine and John had patiently been waiting on us to come and see them before we left. The two of them had also taken a cross country trip the Bicentinial year. They sent us off with farewell, and a special gift to open along the way.

Chris and I hit the highway headed for Columbia. We spent a few nights with my cousin Linsey, Mitch and baby Alex. We ate home cooked meals that were delicious, spent time walking baby Alex through the park (mostly trying to get him to wake up so he could enjoy the sunshine:), and ate downtown at Pawley's Island (we highly recommend their cheese burger and sweet potato fries...don't forget the honey mustard for dipping).
