Morning at Cross Creek

Here is the table were Majorie Kinnan Rawlings wrote her wonderful books, "The Yearling" and "Cross Creek" and many others.

After two days of rain, we finally had a beautiful day on Tuesday, November 22nd. It was cool but sunny and we took off to do some touring. Of course, we got lost along the way. I managed to get us going down a road just about of width of the RV and a dead-end one to boot. Fortunately, at the end of this torturously winding road, there was a tiny cul-de-sac. Luckily, Mel was able to turn our big rig & tow around and we were off to Ms. Rawling's lovely Florida hide-away.

We were able to tour her lovely citrus grove, filled with orange, tangerine and grapefruit trees. Two volunteers, dressed in 1930's garb, were tending the Florida clapboard-style home. We enjoyed roaming through the house, viewing furniture reminiscent of our grandparents. It was a delightful outing.

From Cross Creek, we headed to Ocala, FL.
