Every Day is a Gift!
There’s nothing better than having a view of water from our campsite. During our twelve years of part time RV’ing we have found waterfront campsites in many different places.
This post was inspired by Ingrid’s Wandering Wednesday – Water.
I have lived within a few miles of the Atlantic Ocean for most of my life. A dock connects our back yard to a tidal creek.
At low tide, there’s just a trickle of water in the creek.
During the low tide, wading birds walk along the creek bed searching for food.
When the tide is high, it’s a different world.
At the mouth of the creek we enter a river and explore the coastal waters.
And during the summer, when the tide is just right, we can catch fresh blue crabs for supper.

When was the last time you were driving down the interstate in the state of Georgia and saw a camel or a buffalo?
The first time we saw a buffalo from the interstate as we were traveling east on I-16 towards home we knew we were going to have to stop. Ever since then Moseley’s Wiregrass Junction has become a favorite stopping place when we are traveling along that route.
Usually we just watch the animals from the parking lot but the last time we were there we opted to pay the $2 per person fee to see them up close. We also bought a bag of animal food before going through the gate to see animals.
Next time we may opt for an additional $8 to take a tour of the farm where their zebra, buffalo, cows, pigs and other animals live.
Mosley’s Wiregrass Junction Animal Exit Farm is located on Georgia Interstate 16 at exit 98 in Aline.

Many birds like to perch on the twisted vines covering the arbor in my back yard. This week I was able to capture this Painted Bunting.
I’ve been digging in the dirt a lot lately trying to get my butterfly garden in shape after flooding from Hurricane Irma killed most of the plants last fall.
A few of the new plants are starting to bloom. The zinnias I planted from seed this winter are bursting with color.
The new milkweed plants attracted their first Monarch of the season this week.
The hummingbirds and Painted Buntings have been stopping by the feeders.
This lizard was trying to drink the hummingbird nectar.
Happy spring!
