April 11, 2012--Thomasville, Florida

We arrived at a campground in the country. We had to wait 45 minutes for the office to open and then were given a site (take which ever one you would like). We pulled into a site on the grass which was very nice because we did not have to put down any leveling blocks. The ground was so hard we could not believe we could just park.
When we were set up we took a ride to scoop out the town of Thomasville. Our first part of time we thought it looked like a poor Georgia town. When we got to the downtown they had some very nice shops and eateries. Walt asked which direction we should go to see agriculture. The person said, "You mean like farms?" He thought for a time and then said we should go onto Metcalf Rd. Well, we found the town of Medcalf and it was a blink in the road and we saw only trees on the way except for some cows and calves in 2 fields. This is true southern Georgia.
