2011 - Mar. 03 Day 23 St. Augustine Beach - The Town
We drove thru St. Augustine Beach today, spending the majority of our time on the pier and at the local laundromat. The pictures pretty much tell the story of our day. It cooled down into the low 60s and started to rain at about 3:45 this afternoon. I guess we have a possibility of showers thru tomorrow.
At least we're not shoveling it!

2011 - Mar. 02 Day 22 St. Augustine - The Lighthouse & the Fort
We toured the lighthouse and the fort today. There are 219 steps to get to the top of the lighthouse. Luckily, there are landings every 25 steps or so. It wasn't too bad.
We got done at the fort about 1:30 and headed for Scarlett O'Hara's for lunch. It's a neat little place that has a nice menu. Great BBQ!
Back to the campground for showers and a nap before going to Chris & Larry's again for dinner and more visiting. On the way back from Chris & Larry's, we noticed the St. Augustine Lighthouse shining its beam into the night. I stopped and snapped a few pics. The one below is the best of them, but I couldn't get a vantage point from which to see the beam very well. Anyway, that's pretty much what it looks like.

2011 - Mar. 01 Day 21 Exploring More of Old St. Augustine
We went to the Old Jail trolley stop and got on the trolley. Got off at stop 7 so we could go back to the art gallery and take a picture of Marsha's purchase. The lady there suggested the A1A Ale House for lunch. Great food and they serve about eight different hand crafted beers brewed on site.
We went to the Pirate & Treasure Museum. It's new and was highly suggested by several people. Worth the $11.00 ticket.
After the museum, we got back on the trolley and road out the rest of the tour, all of which we saw yesterday, but different drivers have different stories. By the tome we got back to the car, the temperature had dropped to 64 and the wind was gusting up to 35mph. Chilly!
We picked up some beer & ice on the way back to camp. I think we're holed up for the night. Marsha is taking a nap. I think I'll drive down to the snack bar and post today's entry.
See you tomorrow!
