Good
Morning, Everyone. Day 10 on the road. I’m beginning to lose track of time and
what day it is. I was too tired to write last night. I am at a Comfort Suites
Hotel in Charleston for a couple days. It’s cheaper than the Holiday Inn, has a
nicer room, a much better bathroom, and it has an indoor pool which I used last
night. I do miss the restaurant, though.
The
lady at Magnolia Gardens had told me that I should return in the morning
because rain is expected in the afternoon. Now that it’s daylight, it is quite
overcast. I did want to hang out here a bit and do some writing, but perhaps I
should take off early and come back early. Maybe I should only plan to do the
part of Magnolia I missed yesterday and save the other two places until
tomorrow.
Gosh,
I’m getting old! I can’t seem to handle anything more than one thing in a day.
Yesterday was a long day of walking around. Yes, some was riding, but a lot was
walking and going up and down stairs. Needless to say, my legs and feet are
still hurting. Maybe I’ll take a four pain relievers today instead of my usual
three.
This
is all so fascinating to me. I know I keep saying this, but I love Charleston.
I don’t like the freeways, though. There is so much traffic. I was amazed that
my room is next to Rte. 17S, I’m on the first floor, and I don’t hear the
traffic that badly.
Finished
my writing about yesterday and now I’m getting ready to head out. I want to do
more of Magnolia Plantation and perhaps visit Drayton Hall which is down the
road from it. I went out to the truck earlier. They said it’s 70 degrees, but
it didn’t feel it. There’s quite a breeze this morning and it is overcast. I
like it. Maybe I won’t be as hot walking as I was yesterday.
