FLORIDA WELCOMES US BACK 2023!

This was another eight-hour driving day for TK and he is tired.  Thankfully, there were no challenges, like snow, rain, wind. With just a few stops, one for gasoline ($3.49/gal) in SC), we really breezed along.

 

TK enjoys a glass of real Florida orange juice at the Florida Welcome Center on I-95.

After checking into the hotel, we went to the St. Augustine Premium Outlets briefly, saw no bargains at Tommy Bahama and Chicos, and went to eat at Ford’s Garage. This delightful restaurant “chain” has other sites all over Florida, but this is the only one attached to a Ford/Lincoln dealership.  It is like a Quaker State and Lube on steroids.  https://www.fordsgarageusa.com/locations/st-augustine/ 

This was our only stop to eat today and that was a mistake—we were so tired and famished that I forgot to take a picture of the place. 

This is the very delicious burger.
