Miles: 66.6
Final Destination: Folkston, GA
Well, there’s another city that we need to visit again. I know I just touched the tip of the iceburg of what Savannah has to offer.
Today, my brother in law Ben took me outside the city to roads more appropriate for a bike. As I was getting ready to get on the bike I went in and bought some water as Ben took a quick ride on my bike. When I came out and was walking up toward him, he tossed me his car keys and said, “I’ll see you in Florida.” I think he wishes he was going with me.
I rode for a few miles with a man from Poland who was biking from New York to Jacksonville, FL and then west to Phoenix, AZ where he was boarding a jet to Hawaii. He was on holiday and was seeing a part of America he had never seen. We talked about touring and camping and how nice people are in general.
I met another biker (TC) a little further down the road. She was a local and was doing her daily 40 miles over and back again on the Jekyll Island bridge (pictured). Thanks for taking the picture, TC!
I met my parents at a McDonalds just off I-95 as they were headed to Florida (pictured). It was wonderful to see them and spend some time with family.
Til Tomorrow...

I was talking to my sister in-law when she started saying "Ahh Ruthie your a famous puppy dog." She explained to me what you were doing, and why Ruthie was a famous dog, so I had to see for myself. What you're doing is incredible.
