Places Visited:
Florida Panhandle.

Monday November 5, 2001
Wal-Mart Dothan, Alabama

We spent the day driving our motorhome along country roads from
Seneca, South Carolina to Dothan, Alabama. The drive through Georgia
was mostly through hardwood forest and farms. As we enter Alabama we
began to see cattle and hay operations. The hardwood forest gave way
to pine trees.

Tuesday November 6, 2001
Magnolia Beach RV-Park Panama City Beach, Florida 32408

We drove south on highway 231 from Dothan, Alabama to Panama City
Beach, Florida. The area around Dothan is peanut country. Joyce and
I are not able to recognize peanuts in the fields; possibly they have
already been harvested. We do see white cotton fields ready to be
harvested. At the Florida line we began to see palmetto and wax
myrtle bushes as well as chinaberry and Cyprus trees. Gone are the
hardwood forest we traveled through yesterday in South Carolina and
Georgia. Pine trees are predominant now.

Magnolia Beach Campground on Panama City Beach is appropriately named.
This particular area is covered with Magnolia trees. The campground
is located on the St. Andrews Bay and has a boat ramp and dock on the
premises. During the summer they cater to boaters and campers with
jet skis. During the winter they fill up with snowbirds. It is early
November and they are filling up with the early snowbirds.

Mike's parents live in Panama City and we are stopping by to visit
with them before heading the last 100 miles to our home in Pensacola.

Wednesday November 7, 2001
Magnolia Beach RV-Park Panama City Beach, Florida 32408

We spent the day visiting with my folks.

Only one more night, then we head for Pensacola. We should be home by
noon.

Thursday November 8, 2001
Home; Pensacola, Florida

It is only a hundred miles from Panama City, Florida to Pensacola,
Florida and we make the final leg of our journey with no problem. It
is great to be back home.

Until next time, have a good one. And remember, "It doesn't get any
better".

We are home. This is the last travelogue until we head out again.

We hope that you have enjoyed this trip as much as we have.

 

Mike & Joyce Hendrix
