St Augustine with Clayton & Pat

On Thursday 10/1 we made the 230 mile trip to St Augustine.  We chose a Passport America campground for $24/night and it was a dump.  We selected  it as the best of some bad options.....and we were cheap!  Others were twice the price, too far away or had too many trees which give our rooftop dish problems.  We lucked out as the ground was firm so we didn't get stuck, they have had LOTS of rain lately.

Sunday we went with Clayton & Pat to Daytona and made a stop at the flea market.  It's a huge place so we did only 2 buildings as it was close to the 3pm closing time.  Clayton and I both bought new belts, exciting huh?

The beach was closed due to the wind and waves.   We also saw Kim & Tom one evening too.  Judy and Kim went out the next day in Kim's 1965 VW beetle, Judy got to drive as it's a manual transmission and Kim had hurt her arm so couldn't shift.  They also tried unsuccessfully to get onto the beach. 
PS.......HELLO JEAN!

       With Clayton driving we had to stop at an Eagles for a drink.

We drove through St Augustine as I got another picture of Castillo de San Marcos.

We had a good time with Clayton and Pat and our visit with Kim & Tom.  Tom was volunteering at a golf tournament so we didn't see much of him but Clayton & Pat kept us bust running around.  We got to play poker two or three times and had burgers one evening at Kim & Tom's new investment, a home on the St John's River that they are fixing up.

Judy was happy....she got to drive Kim's restored VW on Daytona Beach.  She remembered how to drive a stick shift, Kim looks like it might be windy!
