After very little sleep--I have no idea why not--I left the hotel about 0530. At least I think that's when I left. Between my two phones, GPS, and bike, I had 4 clocks with 3 different times 🤦. Ah, the joy of daylight saving time 🤣.
By 0600, it was raining, and it didn't stop for about 500 miles 😞. Not fun.
I stopped at three lighthouses along the Florida Gulf Coast. One I had been to before (St Marks), which is a beautiful 10-mile drive from Hwy 98 all the way to the water. The second (Crooked River) was down a very sandy and wet road, which I did not go down. And the third (Cape San Blas) was in the town of Port St Joe. I'm enjoying this challenge.
After those, I turned north to go back to Montgomery, AL, because I goofed up my photo when I went there on my way to Virginia Beach. I didn't get a dated business receipt to prove when I was there 🤦. So, I added a 300-mile loop to go take the picture again AND get the receipt. Mission accomplished!
Now, I'm camped at a Harley dealership and crashing hard. Riding in the rain is exhausting.
Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING! ✌️
