Suwannee River Rendezvous - site 177

Mayo, Florida

Can you believe a month has passed and our caravan trip is drawing to a close?  And what a wonderful last day everyone enjoyed!!

The day began with a bit of a chill in typical Florida spring weather style but with the hearty breakfast that was served, no one uttered any complaints at all.  Not only were pancakes and sausage served fresh off the griddles

But with grits on the menu, Louise stated that there just had to be eggs as well in true southern style.

Top off the pancakes with Michele's fried apples, and it was a breakfast feast.

Not being raised southern, Momma just couldn't believe the dish that Louise dug into, savoring each bite.

I'm not sure if you would call it scrambled eggs smothered in grits or grits smothered in eggs.  Either way, Momma took a pass as there was plenty of other choices being served.

The day was also full of games including Beanbag Baseball.  The teams only had 6 players but the scores still racked up into the double digits. 

The bottom of one inning had to be cut off as the blue team had reached 5 runs in one inning.  The blue team may have started out slow, but once they warmed up, they pulled in the runs.  Momma, surprisingly enough, had several home runs.   

The campground had a nice set of corn hole that was put to use with several play offs.

Then a group of 6 gathered for a quick game of Mexican Train before the pot luck dinner.

Once again, the Golden Triangle Campers filled the serving table with delicious, mouthwatering, tasty dishes for everyone to enjoy.

The evening ended around the campfire.

Tomorrow everyone will pack up to head further south as they head home carrying with them a bucket full of new memories made on this year's spring caravan.
