MORE PHOTOS ARE COMING AND MORE TRIP REPORTING. COME BACK!

We drove from home to Tampa and back stopping in Gwynedd PA, Washington DC, Fort Lee VA, Hilton Head SC, Jeckyll Island GA, Myrtle Beach SC and Winchester VA. We were in Tampa from March 2 to March 5 and had a wonderful time with Peggy (Mary's sister) and Carlos. We were there for Peggy's birthday. We stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn North Tampa which is actually in Oldsmar on the Northern end of Tampa Bay. We enjoyed going to 2 beautiful Oldsmar town parks on the bay.

Our stop in Washington was brief. We went to Smithsonian's African-American Museum. This needs to be a required visit for anyone who can get there. It is a place where we can appreciate the many gifts of African Americans and realize how much horrible oppression so many endured for centuries.

The photos from Jeckyll Island and Myrtle Beach were taken on March 5, 6 and 7. Winchester photos were taken during the evening of March 7. We thought this would just be a night to rest before the last day of driving but we were treated to a delicious dinner at the Water Street Kitchen. You definitely want to dine there the next time you are in Winchester, Virginia. The only March 8 photo was taken at a rest stop on I-81 of a Road Scholar Truck. We have taken three Road Scholar trips so I thought a picture of one of their trucks was a good thing to do!
