They actually don't bark too much, but they do get up regularly with me at 4. Can't seem to get them to understand what a vacation day is, or a weekend day for that matter.

I never had that issue with my pups, Larry. I didn't get up, so they didn't. 😃
But if I got up to peeee....

Quickie post, and then will try to play "catch up" again! Currently in Marietta, GA. Going to run the Atlanta gauntlet tomorrow en route to St. Augustine, FL. I did not much like the drive through a bit of Michigan and all of Ohio on I-75. Too many cities! First Detroit, then Toledo, Dayton and then Cincinatti all in one day. However, we love Kentucky and Tennesee! Some of those upgrades and downgrades through the mountains though, so long! Up, up, up, up and down, down, down, down. Trying to imagine how it would feel with the truck and trailer. Have to say, I am missing the trailer big time. Have gotten used to travelling with my own bed, kitchen, bath, etc. etc. Not the same in hotels, but would only be covering half the distance in a day. When hauling, I like to keep it at about 4 hours driving a day, instead of the 7-8 we are doing now, so the trip would take at least a week instead of 4 days. Really wanted to spend time in Bluegrass Country in Kentucky, but this trip is about a dash to FL and exploring there for a couple of weeks. Still, good to be on the rainbow, heading to check out prospective campgrounds!

PS - and its warm!

Pardon me for this ponder. It's not life threatening or particularly profound. But here goes . . . . . . . . .

Why do so many towns in the low country (within 50 miles of the sea) of South Carolina and Georgia AND the entire state of Florida have "hills" as part of their names? Also in several of the cities that we visited have schools, malls, subdivisions, etc. with "hills" in their names.

The highest point in these areas must be 8 - 10 feet above sea level.

That's like Texas calling their hills "mountains". Guess they haven't seem Alaska. Heck, Alaska doesn't bother naming a mountain unless it's over 10,000 feet in the air.

Maybe its because they believe in the power of positive thinking? Someday, a hill may appear.

^^^ Steve - is it possible the Hill family investment trust is behind this. No actual "hills" involved. Just a very big family with lots of money?

Texas has the "Hill Country" and some that I have seen are 6 and 7% grade but not really mountains!

That's a good one, Steve. I suspect that there may be a barely perceptable bump at those points. Perhaps the local constabulary was trying to lure businesses to a high point with possibility of a public overlook?
In MN in my teens, we went to ski and eye the chicks at a place called Buck Hill. We called it Buck Bump. Folks from MN that went out West to REAL ski places were easily picked out on the slopes, as they had a habit of "shushing" side-to-side very rapidly. In MN at Buck Bump, you got in as many "shushes" as possible!
True story!
