MOUNT PLEASANT, SOUTH CAROLINA

Today's ride was a short 350 miles. We left Max Meadows at 8:45 a.m., 19 F, and clear. There is still snow on the ground left over from the snow storm that affected the Eastern seaboard about 10 days ago.

TK's Take: Within 20 minutes on the road, the temperature doubled to 38 F.

We were coming down from the mountains near the North Carolina border-beautiful scenic views. By Statesville, North Carolina there was NO SNOW!!!!!

When we hit South Carolina at 11:15, it was 46 F and we saw PALM trees. An hour from Charleston it was 55 F. Because we are on the road and trying to escape the cold, it seems we are only noticing the weather!

Our purpose in Mount Pleasant is to visit the Congessional Medal of Honor Society's museum aboard the U.S.S. Yorktown and meet with Jennifer Lennon, Director of Development, and Pat Waters, the grandson of General George Patton. I am very excited about this meeting!
