Stormy...

This was meant to be published yesterday--July 7th--but without wifi, I couldn't upload it until now.

So...the place I left? Wonderful Tybee Island, GA. A whole week there, with occasional visits to Savannah. I'm on some highway right now, and it is storming HARD. The new Popular Science issue is great, I like the stuff in there, and how these people like analyzing things too! One of the things they're talking about is Chernobyl. I had no idea that even the most unassuming stray cat could be chock-full of radioactive isotopes! Aaaahhhh. I love being a geek.

Homeward Bound,

Ghosts and Gravestones: Savannah

The tour that I told you guys about yesterday was phenomenal! Our tour guide acted as if she LOVED her job--I bet she wasn't acting--, and the reenactment at the end was frightening, yet funny. I'm really bummed to be leaving Georgia, and after we leave, I'll tell you where we were.

Lack of posting

Over the course of 20+ hours starting on Friday, July 6th @ 5pm EST., to Saturday, July, 7th @ about 10pm Central, I probably won't be posting.

Sorry.

I have to drive home...ehhh...,
Cam.

P.S.:Tonight I'm going on a ghost tour in Savannah :) Blog about it tomorrow!

On the Road Again: Georgia!

Yes! After over sixteen hours of being cooped up in a car, I--we--finally arrived in *unnamed island near Savannah*, GA! Last night, we stayed in Atlanta, and the pullout bed was SO COMFY. We're sharing the house with a few other families, so we're never lonely!
So, I feel like I have to blog about this amazing restaurant in Manchester, Tennessee. Their hospitality was outstanding, and so was their food. The restaurant's name is The Oak Restaurant, and like I said, they're located in Manchester, TN. Our server was so nice, and I really felt out of place, since I asked him if they had sweet tea. Being from a state where if you want iced tea, you have to join the dark side and go unsweetened, sweet tea is a treat! I don't go to McDonald's often, which is one of the only places in my town that I know of that has sweet tea...Anyway, Oak Restaurant. Manchester.
Secondly--or third?--: GAS.
You Southerners out there that are reading this post are SO FREAKING LUCKY!! Gas in my region costs about $4.12 p/gal. Gas in the South? Around $2.90-$3.20 p/gal. At the gas station we were: only $3.03.
Boy, did my dad fill up on gas then!

I have a question for everyone:

Is "Southern Hospitality" a real thing? Northerners: Have you ever met an outlandishly mean or rude Southerner?
Southerners: If you are hospitable, does that mean that Northerners are hostile?
Other regions:What is the price of gas in your part of the country?

I kid you not...

...my mom and I were driving, and we actually saw the pancake-flipping Mystery Machine!!!!!!
That was yesterday, and the other picture is of a car at our town's grocery store. So true, but when we first saw it, frightening.
The other other other picture is one that I found on this one app.

I guess the guy really wanted a car!

Over and out!
