BIG NEWS... We found the dish washing soap in the most unlikely place.  Under the kitchen sink.

We finished up our touring of St Augustine yesterday.  We went in the afternoon and toured the old county jail, a museum and a great tour at St Sebastion Winery.  The county jail tour was led by a man in a jail outfit and was in the caracter of prisoner.  He was about 6'3" had no front teeth, a weeks growth of beard and long stringy hair.  Thats what he really looked like!  During the tour, he acted a little funny that seemed not part of the tour.  Taking deep breaths, stumbling, long pauses.  Then at the end, in the cell block, he said stay here as long as you like and left us.  We walked out and GA said I think he was drunk.  Hard to tell if he was sluring words because your diction isn't the best when your 4 front teeth are missing.  But it would explain some of what we observed.

The winery tour was very good with quite a bit of tasting afterward. After that we went to the old town, hit a few places and went to a cajun restaurant for dinner, then took an Uber back to the RV Park.

We had a tip to go to a bar called The Social Club.  The owner was very talkative and of course asked where we were from.  We told him Morris Illinois.  He said his partner, who was out of town at a wedding, was originally from Morris, Il, his name was Shannon and his grandfather owned an electrical company in Morris, Il.  Well, our neighbor in Morris was named Shannon and owned Shannon Electric in Morris. He was retired but his son was still running the company.  We truly believe we were neighbors with his grandparents.  Talk about a small world.

Tomorrow we head back home.  We need to be out of here by noon and I don't imagine we will be in any big hurry. All systems A-OK

See ya out there
