Last stop...........

Thursday was our last night in Tallahassee.  We chatted with a few people who were staying there.  Rich helped a gentleman and his wife from Fort Myers with finding gas stations on the way home using Gasbuddy.........and spent a lot of time talking with Douglas from Jacksonville, who was in the business of helping failing businesses.  They had a lot in common and traded e-mails to stay in touch.

We had dinner at Ruby's Diner and Catering the night before and it was sooooo good that we decided to go back for dinner on Thursday.  I enjoyed the Country Fried Steak so much.........that I ordered it again; this time electing the mashed potato instead of fries.  Rich opted for the daily special Chicken and Dumplings.  Again........absolutely delicious.

We didn't get on the road until after 10:00, and headed for the Quality Inn in Chiefland, Fl.   On the way we stopped in Perry, Fl for lunch.   Looks like the place that most of the locals go for breakfast, lunch and dinner.  Daily specials.  Rich ordered a burger and onion rings.  The onion rings were HUGE.....and delicious!  I had the Reuben sandwich which was not the best I've ever had, but it was good.

  

 Another very nice hotel, fast friendly staff, hot breakfast, clean and spacious rooms, nice area with a variety of places to eat, and a really nice outdoor pool. 

It was about 7:39pm and we still had not made any plans for dinner.  After having such a big lunch we opted to stay in.  I had 2 hot dogs left in the cooler, and one Hot Pocket. There was a little sharp cheese, some pretzels and some oreo cookies!!!  Yes folks, that was dinner.  We had one bottle of water left, and I bought a bottle of sprite at the vending machine!   Nothing else exciting. 

Tomorrow morning, whenever we wake up, we'll head for home. It's only about 31/2 hours....so we'll take our time and hope the traffic isn't too bad.   It will be so good to be back home!!!
