March 15th, 16th and 17th 2018

Thursday we were up and on the road by 9am. The rest of the crew headed for the ski hill. It had snowed overnight so we had to clean the SUV off, hopefully for the last time this spring. It was a slower drive than we had planned on down the secondary roads to the 90. Travel was good down the 90, 87, 84 and finally onto the 81. After a long day we pulled off the highway at Carlisle, Penn.
Friday, up and on the road by 8am in 0 degree weather - still long pants and shirts. As we travelled down the 81, the 17, the 95 and then the 701 thru Penn, Virginia, North Carolina and finally into South Carolina the grass started to turn green, the buds are popping on the trees and the temp went up. By the time we hit Myrtle Beach the sun was shining and the temperature was 25 degrees C. So nice to feel the heat and the sand between our toes. Our night view of the beach.
Saturday - Happy St Paddy's day. A cool, cloudy day which we spent at the Run for the Sun car show with hundreds of antique cars and trucks, lunch at a Irish Pub, quick visit to a quilt shop, a beer at the Old Irish Pub and dinner at a steak house.
