• University of Tampa ring ceremony

    Dave headed from there to Port Charlotte while I stopped in Tampa for the night to attend the University of Tampa men’s swim team ring ceremony for winning the national championships in March. Several great friends from our time on the team attended including my roommate and best friend who was up for a spur of the moment flight down from NY. So grateful for friends that just immediately make you feel like you’re home. The ring ceremony was so well done and catching up with old friends just felt perfect.

    After a quick 16 hours in Port Charlotte it was quickly evident we shouldn’t be there for Milton. We headed to St Augustine to ride out the storm with our camper and pups. Of course then the storm shifted and we needed to get further north so we luckily found a spot at a Savannah, Georgia campground. The staff were so kind and everything was perfect after a stressful few weeks. We loved Savannah and plan to return for hopefully a more relaxing stay. Our Punta Gorda campground neighbors were driving south from NY at the same time and stopped in Savannah as well so it was great to spend some time with them exploring.
