The Final State Line
We were unable to take the ferry off of Dauphin Island… there was so much damage from Hurricane Ivan last September that the landing dock was destroyed. Woman Tours shuttled us all the land route (100miles?) with the help of the van, the sag, and a few friends. We were dropped at the former ferry landing, so that we'd still get the usual 70 miles in for the day.
Strong headwinds tried their best to deter us, but we still managed to make it into Florida. Whuhoo!
Talked to some locals selling boiled peanuts on the roadside, both of whom are still waiting to make it back into their homes since the storm damage last year.
