i got my baby back, baby back, baby back



All is right in my world... my car is back home again.


My long-time friend Sherry Moore, who I haven't seen much in quite a few years, responded to my plea on facebook for a ride to Florida.
She is on summer break from teaching and was looking for an excuse to escape her house.
(smile)
I certainly know how that goes!
Jason Arons had mentioned the Murray Bros. Caddy Shack, so she and I had a lengthy pit stop there. What a delightful place! Movie posters adorn the walls and the high ceiling gives the place an airy feel. And the food? Not only was it delicious, it was inexpensive, too! That was a very pleasant surprise, given its swanky location.
I just may have to stop here again some time.
(smile)


Our next stop was at Jack Wilson Buick GMC, where I met Linsey, the woman with the reassuring voice on the phone these past few days.
In a matter of mere minutes, I was back in my Saturn again and headed for home!


I was so relieved to see the Georgia Peach welcoming us back over the state line -
hallelujah!
The drive had been a bit stressful at that point.
I had decided to take the less-busy Florida Highway 1, but I had not realized how much shifting would be involved.
The new shift cable was quite tight, making third gear especially tricky to find.
By the time I reached the outskirts of Savannah, I needed a break from the road and the sun.
"Toy Story 4" was just starting on the Big D screen -
hallelujah!

And now I am home, and my car is home, and I'll have more driving practice tomorrow.
Good night, world.

i thank You, God.

Just for reference, here's my full review:

"Reviewed 6 days ago
fun place for a movie fan!

Never would I have ventured into the World Golf Village if a friend hadn't steered me here! I would have been concerned about prices too much. No need! Excellent prices on the food, some truly unique dishes, and plenty to explore while you wait! I had even forgotten about some of the movies and not heard of others. Nice to see him and his brothers in all the family photos, too. Excellent break from I-95!"
