Nathan & Dad's Big Adv. - Day 6

YOUNG HARRIS, GA - Before what would be a long day on the road, we made a quick farewell trip to the beach. After a couple of quick stops to fill up our cooler and grab a few souvenirs, we finally got on the road just after noon. We didn't get far, though, before we had to stop at Sonics for lunch. Probably a good idea since we hadn't really have breakfast. Nathan was excited about that since we always see commercials, but don't have any near us.

Not too far out of Myrtle Beach (an hour?), we passed through the home town of country star Josh Turner. Don't recall the name, but it wasn't much. Nathan did pretty well for most of the trip, but was getting very anxious to at least reach Georgia by five or so. Finally, around 7:15, we arrived in Georgia. Did see a "Welcome to" sign, so had to settle for a Chattahoochee NF sign. Made me want to pop in an Alan Jackson CD.

We got to Aunt Barbara's and Uncle Bob's around 8:30. A bit longer than I'd thought it'd take. Apparently, my original itinerary did say it would take about 8 1/2 hours, but once I mapped out our routes in the atlas, I didn't even look at the original online directions. Bed was sounding very appealing.
