Day 86, Monday, January 13, 2025, Skidaway Island State Park, Savannah, GA , Day 6 - 0 Miles, 3,153.3 Miles for the Trip
I guess putting flannel sheets on the bed did help with nighttime temperatures. It only went down to 42°F last night. A light rain started around 6:00AM and continued light to medium throughout the early morning. By 10:00 it stopped & I packed up the trailer for the move to site 18. I set up first. A level site that I wouldn't need to unhook, but I have to find a post office, stop at the campground office & do a little food shopping. Similar to site 54; a tent pad, fire pit, and picnic table on dirt rather than the gravel of site 54. Water & electric for $39.38 per night. The site is midway between the two bathrooms; a little further to the one at the start of areas 3 & 4 that I used in the past, but worth the walk if you are going to shower. Even though I gave it a poor rating, the bathrooms that are "officially" for my new area 1 are individual rooms with a sink, toilet & shower, but they are either unheated or barely heated, and they stink.

After setting up I went to the office to get a refund for my discount and a site sticker, then to Publix & the post office. The post office is in the corner inside a local pharmacy. The island reminds me of Nantucket in some ways - fancy stores, fancy cars, and what are probably very expensive homes. The store & post office are only a mile and a half from the campground.
After looking at a sign in the shopping area I realized that it is Skidaway Island, not Skidway Island. I fixed the web pages and Blogger posts. That also explains why Trip Wizard couldn't find it when I searched for Skidway.
Still reading Floating Dragon by Peter Straub.
Dinner was a Lean Cuisine Chicken & Broccoli Alfredo bowl.
Sorry this is late - for some reason it didn't post yesterday.
Until Tomorrow -
