Blythe Island

Blythe Island Regional Park Brunswick, Georgia

The campground had a nature trail perfect for my morning walk.

We drove 242 miles south mostly on 95. Just 20 miles short of our destination we hit heavy traffic for an accident ahead. We sat there a long time…but I kept thinking of the people in the accident and it was no problem to wait for our turn to pass. It was after 3 before we arrived at Blythe Regional Park. This little park turned out to be a wonderful surprise.

Just as we were backing in, rain began. It was the perfect excuse for an afternoon quiet hour. At 4 the skies were blue and clear and we took our bikes on the trail in the park. It was a sandy path studded with pinecones and live oak tree roots…but the scenery was worth it! Lots of huge old trees dripping with Spanish moss, palmettos, and water all around.

Just as we got back to the RV, the rain began again. We pulled the grill beneath the awning and I grilled onions and mushrooms for chicken marsala. I got a little damp…but we have lots of dry clothes!
