Virginia to Florida: Part II

We were blessed with beautiful weather on our trip from North Carolina to Georgia. Saturday traffic seemed lighter that usual and we had a pleasant and uneventful ride.

Lake Pines Campground is an old facility under renovation. We saw many improvements since we were there in 2006. It is very convenient for us when we visit Columbus. We settled in and Janice called her mother to tell her we were there.

Janice's mother's 99th birthday was Monday January 14. We had not told her we would be there. From Saturday through Monday we had a great celebration. A highlight of the celebration occurred Monday when 99-long stem roses were delivered to the 'birthday girl' in four large vases while she was having lunch with her friends in the dinning room. She was overwhelmed. Her grand daughters, Amy and Karen, had made her day sending these beautiful roses.

We were anxious to continue our trip, and Janice's mom had had enough excitement for sometime. We were on our way Tuesday morning.
