Tonight I am sitting in a huge parking lot filled with tractor trailer trucks all around us. Their big diesel engines running, the constant popping and whizzing of their air brakes and purge values going off. You might be wondering why? We are in transit to our next job site and decided to pull into this truck stop for the night. Since we are only here for the evening and will be on the road first thing tomorrow morning why spend money on a campground. We are headed up to the southwest corner of South Carolina. About 50 minutes north of Augusta, Georgia. The place we will be staying and working is called Hickory Knob State Park. It's more like a resort since they have an 18 hole golf course along with hotel and campground. We'll be there for the next two weeks as we work the area. I hope to get some golf in while we are there or at least go to the driving range a bunch of times.
For now I am entertaining myself by watching these truckers pull up in their big rigs. Maneuver them around, back them up between two other trucks with the ease of a two year old picking his nose. No thought at all.
I can only hope that the weather will continue to be hot as we move north. I think we got a little spoiled being by the ocean for the past couple of weeks. We really had forgotten how much we missed just hanging on the beach all day. Reading, sleeping, watching the waves roll in and people watching. We hope to be on a shore again soon. For now, here we come South Carolina!
