We woke up early, preparing to say goodbye to Staunton once more. We gathered up our belongings, readied ourselves for the day, and made our way to the lobby. Upon checking out, there was a mixup with our bill. After sorting out the confusion, we asked if we could leave our car in the garage while we walked to a nearby restaurant for brunch. She allowed us to keep our keys in order to leave the garage after brunch. We were informed of a dropbox by the gate, which would allow us to leave without stealing the key. We agreed and made our way to the car to deposit our belongings. Then we returned to the Mill Street Grill across the street. They always have the best brunch--the two times we've had it.
Our bread with the same Irish butter as last time.
My bacon, grits, and biscuit.
Jason's Egg's Benedict with potatoes.
Our mint ice cream.
After brunch, we returned to the car, dropped the key in the drop box, and headed toward Georgia. We stopped at a nearby gas station for some drinks and to fill up the car with gas. We decided on the gas station called Sheetz, as the 7 eleven we previous visited had left us disappointed. We made sure to eat a large breakfast so we wouldn't have to stop for lunch. When hungry, we ate some snacks I had packed before leaving for the trip--animal crackers, peanut butter crackers, fruit roll ups, etc. We spent the entire trip finishing the book "Murder in Coweta County." The drive went by fast and the book was very good. We finished an hour or two before reaching our destination.
Originally we planed to go immediately home, but we were rather hungry and it was dinner time once we reached the exit for our house. We decided to pass our exit and drive to Which Wich in Newnan for dinner. We parked right in front of the restaurant so we could make sure no one stole our belongings. We discussed our trip and the book as we ate.
Soon we were back in the car. Within 15 minutes we were home. Our cats cuddled up to us and made it known how much they missed us, Fred meowing furiously as we walked through the door. Home sweet home.
