Saturday – September 15
Today we spent a little time driving around Savannah. Caryn wanted to find and take a picture of the Juliet Gordon Low house. Juliet was the founder of the Girl Scouts of America, and yes Caryn was a girl scout. We spent the rest of the day golfing at the Robert Trent Jones Palmetto Dunes course on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Weather forecasters had predicted showers for the afternoon however they were WRONG and we had plenty of sunshine, with a small amount of humidity. We had a great time and grabbed some dinner after golf at Truffles, on Hilton Head, before we headed back to our hotel in Savannah. Had we known earlier the big entertainment in town tonight was none other than Sir Elton John.
Sunday – September 16
Today we drove from Savannah to St. Augustine, Florida. Steve decided to detour off I-95 and experience the “Low Country”. Our goal was to hug the coast line, but we soon learned Florida’s highways are located “inland”. When we arrived in St. Augustine our first stop was the World Golf Hall of Fame. We arrived too early so decided to have lunch at “The Murray’s Caddy Shack” restaurant. Yes, this is owned by Bill Murray and his five brothers. When speaking with our waitress we learned Bill had two sisters in addition to the brothers. The Hall of Fame was a wonderful experience! We spent three hours and could have stayed for six. We highly recommend this to our golf fanatic friends. We checked into our hotel and then spent some time driving around St. Augustine. Just love the old walls created out of shells. Tomorrow we’re off to visit friends in Lutz, Florida.
