At The Sturgill's

We couldn't go through North Carolina without stopping to see Guy's sister.  The trailer was in the driveway, we stayed in the back bedroom.  Linda and Tom's place is beautiful. They are great hosts. We had a great deal of fun. We never made it to the ocean. It was a bit to chilly for that. Instead, we went shopping at some little antique type shops and then ate lunch at one of the restaurants in the area where we were shopping. In the evening, we played Mexican train and cards. Thanks for everything Linda and Tom.
