 Thankfully, TK was able to disengage my gold earring from the trap under the sink this morning. After that rescue we were ready to visit Judy P, my longtime friend from my year of school in France. Originally from Nebraska, she now lives in St. Augustine. This week she was but camping for solace not far from her home.  We haven’t seen her in three years, and it was great to see her!

We drove along A1A / Atlantic Ocean for some time, noting the work to replenish the sand that has washed away right along the road. It is kind of an oxymoron to see the multi-million-dollar homes next to houses that did not survive recent hurricanes and are now in ruins.

By 1 p.m. we arrived at Dixie Crossroads in Titusville, Florida, a favorite for many years. Fresh shrimp, my favorite fries, and “Krabby Bites,” amazing corn fritters covered with powdered sugar, what’s not to love?

TK is such a good model at Dixie Crossroads

Cape Canaveral and Cocoa Beach were about a half hour away, and after checking in to our hotel, we headed to RonJon’s.  We did not linger long, stopped at Walmart for a battery operated alarm because I forgot mine, and returned to the hotel just in time for their complimentary buffet.

 Another short day.
