A much warmer morning, so much so Lyn got up in the middle of the night to turn the heating off. We had some heavy rain overnight, which has left a lot of large puddles all over the place. Drainage in this area seems to be poor to non-existent.
It was overcast and there was a severe fog advisory in effect for the area so we decided it was a stay at home day. This morning we had to go and check-in as the office isn’t open on the week-ends. After that we headed into town to do some grocery shopping. When we got to the check out and pay for some wine I was asked for ID as I appeared to be under 40! There’s a first.
The temperature climbed to 74°F around midday, a welcome change from the cold days we have had since we arrived down south.
After lunch Lyn headed over to the laundry while I got busy doing nothing. Once that was done we combined our walk with some local geo-caching, followed by a drive out to a large “General Store” located on the outskirts of the town. On the way back we drove through a very nice sub-division where all the houses were located on small canals feeding into navigable waterways. I checked on the prices of some of houses later, they were ridiculous; for $499,999 you could get a 3600 sq ft, 5 bed, 5 bath house. $250,000 would get you a 3 bed /3 bath 2500 sq ft home with covered dock and boardwalk along the canal at the bottom of the garden.
Back at the camp ground it was warm enough to sit outside for our afternoon coffee, and my last slice of Christmas cake.
Tomorrow is forecast to be a bit cooler, and we are heading out to visit a plantation house and go on a swamp boat trip
