Day One - Fall Color Tour

Long day.  Two firsts:  First time we loaded a car on a tow dolly.  Not as bad as we expected. Stopped three times in the first hour to check the rigging.  It worked.  First (and hopefully last) time we arrived after sunset to setup for the night.  Not ideal.

I-75 northbound:  multi-car accident at mile marker 302 / 303; just north of SR 50 - Brooksville / Ridge Manor.  Parking lot.  Lots of traffic, just sitting; both directions.  Accident northbound; rubberneckers southbound.

I-75 northbound:  Wind and rain; Gainesville.  Waited it out at the Paynes Prairie Rest Area.  Nice time for dinner and listening to the rain.  Wind pushed us around a bit.  Glad we stopped.

Distance traveled:  219 miles
