Day 94, Tuesday, January 21, 2025, Suwannee Music Park & Campground, Live Oak, FL, Day 6 - 0 Miles, 3,377.8 Miles for the Trip
While freezing morning temperatures were predicted, it stayed at 38°F most of the night and went down to 34°F by morning. It appears that 47°F at 3:30 was the high for the day. The predictions of 4" of snow & 1/2" of ice has changed to 1" of snow & 1/10" of ice. My neighbor (I only have 2) changed his site because there are good sized dead branches over his trailer and 1/2" of ice might be enough to bring some of them down. Now that the prediction is down to 1/10" he wishes he didn't make the change. I have a few trees above my site, but the branches look OK.
After breakfast i headed to the Field Laundromat. It had the best on line recommendations of the three in Live Oak. I'd hate to see the other two. Field Laundromat has no chairs, two small wooden folding tables, and many out of order machines. Dirty concrete floors and no bathroom. On the other hand it is inexpensive, $2.25 for a double load front loading washer, 8 minutes per quarter for the large dryers, and a working change machine. I watched the slowest "folding & packing" of a dryer load of clothes I've ever seen. The guy folded each item a couple of times until he was satisfied, stacked them until the entire load was folded, then moved them (the individual pieces of laundry, not the stacks) one at a time into a large carrying bag. He refolded each piece to fit in the bag. It took well over half an hour while other folks waited to get a chance to fold their stuff. Luckily, he was done before my clothes were dry.
I finished The Midnight Man, and took a break from Loren D. Estleman and started House Rules by Mike Lawson, # 3 in his DeMarco series.
Dinner was a Chef Ramsay Lemon Caper Chicken Bowl.
