South

Today dawned too early.  Or at least too early to make our intended departure of 8 am.  We did manage to leave at 9:30 and poor Tom has had to do all the driving today as Cheryl ended up with a back spasm between her shoulder blades.  Don't know what caused it, don't know what finally fixed it, but after a large glass of wine she can now take a deep breath without paroxysms of stabbing pain.  

One of Tom's goals this trip was to see the Dali museum in St. Petersburg.  Last time he was here, about 12 years ago, it was closed.  This time, they closed the road but the museum itself is open. We found a parking spot in the alternative lot, and Tom toured the museum while Cheryl tended to her back . (Nope, had not yet discovered the wine effects.  She was on her back with a golf ball under her shoulder.  It sorta got a little better as long as she did not have to move.). He forgot both his camera and his phone, so the only picture you get is his wristband.  He says there was a Warhol exhibit, too.

Late afternoon found us at the campground du nuit, this one called Frog Creek.  It is actually kinda cute, with many tree and a meandering creek suitable for fishy and canoeing.

Tom wants you to know the sign on the tree says "Beware of Alligators".
