I started to post this on Saturday but after arriving home, melting from the heat, I just sat under a ceiling fan, drank copious quantities of water and iced tea and then played Guild Wars.
It was 98 F (36 Celsius)with a heat index of a million I'm sure. So. Hot. And with helmet and armored jacket....it just drains you.
Anyway, this was a few days ago......
Saturday - first day of vacation we rode through Bainbridge Georgia and ate at a local restaurant called R. That's right, it's just a letter...as in, "Sesame Street is brought to by the letter R" now roll it off your tongue like a pirate. RRrrrrrrrr.
Photo at the top. The one below here is called Big Jims and they are within yards of one another. R offers burgers, BLT sandwiches, grilled or fried chicken sandwiches, and similar fare. Big Jims offers seafood - fish sandwiches, Po Boys, cheese grits.......

As is typical for temperatures in Florida in June, it felt like 150 degrees when we rode through Georgia. A grilled chicken sandwich and buckets of ice tea were just perfect. Doug had a cheeseburger and it was huge. Huge. All this for under $15.....home cooked fare.
As I've said before, we like supporting the mom and pop places - markets, restaurants or hardware stores.......
Outside the restaurant and adjacent campground are lovely hibiscus.

Gorgeous colors.

Looking forward to a ride back, maybe Tristan can accompany us, and we'll try the seafood.

Gawd, that's HOT! And I'm sure it's pretty humid down there, too. I'd be jumping in that lake for sure!
ReplyDeleteIt was truly like wrapping yourself in a wet wool blanket. The heat today actually made me nauseous by the time we got home from a few errands. It's 10:30 PM now and it's 84 degrees (28 C)- the air conditioner is running. Arrggh!
ReplyDeleteThat kind of humidity would kill me. It was terrible when I lived in Ontario, and we never had an A/C until a couple years before I left (and I was there 7 years).
ReplyDeleteYup, that's crazy from the heat kinda temps!! Now I want a po'boy!!
