Homeward Bound

We are getting close now! Tonight we reached Gainesville, Florida and it looks like we are only 300 miles from home. Depending on the weather, we will eat crabs at Peace River and head home tomorrow or stay in Tampa for one night visiting friends. Either way, we will be home Sunday.

This is my first time seeing the Florida State Capitol Building in Tallahassee and I have to say it's an impressive sight. The building and grounds are beautiful. I'd have liked to have taken a tour or something but we wanted to preserve the option of driving to Naples Saturday if the weather turned bad so that meant driving till dark.

Hotwire came through again finding us a beautiful hotel for only $60! We are settled into the Paramount Plaza next to the Chop Stix Restaurant where we had a lovely Ginger Grouper dinner.

We drove longer than we like, but in all it was a pretty good day.
