2 Wheels 4 Kids: Day 6 - April 29, 2012 Wilson, NC to Brunswick, GA

"South of the Border" - tacky tourist trap/fireworks emporium at the NC/SC state line.

Today was a day totally without any drama, excitement, or out-of-the-ordinaryness of any kind. Just another 400 miles straight down I-95 through North and South Carolina and then deep into Georgia. In fact, my overnight stop in Brunswick Georgia is barely 30 miles from the Florida State Line. Florida is where I'll spend the next couple of days. Maybe this is a good time for a look-ahead. Tomorrow I'll ride another 400 (or so) miles directly to Miami. The intent is to stage tomorrow nigh at a location convenient for my Tuesday morning visit to the Miami Children's Hospital - the second of my hospital kids' visits. Tuesday, after that's over around noon my goal is to head on down to Key West, my second "corner." After the requisite pictures and such, I'll head back northward, getting as far as I can that evening. Overnight destination TBD. Wednesday I'll pick up again heading north, bound for northern Florida, then the Florida panhandle and beyond. Again, exact destination unknown. I do know that I need to be in San Diego by Monday night a week from now so it's not all that hard to figure out. It's just a lot of miles! One thing worth mentioning about today is the change in weather. After having been cold most of the past week, I think that phase is finally over. It was only yesterday afternoon that I first saw the temperature go above 60! Well, this morning it was 60 when I pulled out of the hotel parking lot and by the time I got to the Georgia State Line it was 97! From record cold in the Northeast to record highs in the Southeast. Weather. Ya just really never know. At every fuel stop today I shed more clothing and by the end of the day I was down to just jeans and my jacket. No gloves even! Probably gonna be hot these next few days. Well, that's the scoop from Georgia tonight. Thanks for being here with me!
