Pulled into St Augustine yesterday afternoon. Huge brush fire along I-95, we lucked out. Traffic was backed up to the overpass at the exit we had to get off at. We were able to get off, people that passed that exit sat on the freeway for ours.

Stayed here an extra day and did some sightseeing today. Tomorrow on to Miami. Yesterday was a tough drive, lots of strong wind gusts blowing across the freeway. I was nervous about the mountains in WV, they were a breeze compared to fighting the winds. Hopefully tomorrow won't be as windy.

Well we made it. We're in Miami, actually south west of Miami, not too far from Homestead. Weather was nice yesterday, pretty good ride coming down. Miles of burnt trees and brush along the freeway in 2 different areas, still smoldering.

Got setup here in the campground, had a few beers, grilled some burgers and crashed. Driving a motorhome is lot more work than driving a car. Wind gusts and semi's push you around. You're always driving, not like the car, I'm beat.

Small fresh water leak going into the toilet. I'll have to figure out how that thing works and fix it. Turned the water off for now, I need to sit and enjoy my coffee for awhile.

You all enjoy your day.
