... The kids saw a truck in the parking lot that looked like Uncle Rick's truck and we told him he wasn't here with us on this trip but maybe the next one.... (hint hint :-) Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for all of the prayers. We know Jesus heard your prayers, we're still not sure about Grandpa's though. Our next stop is a hotel in Orlando FL.

... 40 across to US 1 and then headed north, stopping in Waycross for fuel. Since Hurricane Ike hit Texas at the weekend, fuel prices have been going up, despite assurances from the Texan authorities that there are no problems with supply and distribution.
