Drive to Fort Pickens National Campground

Our 68 mile drive from Topsail Campground to Fort Pickens was not a fun drive today. It rained the whole way, and there was lots of traffic and stop lights along the way. But the worst of it was driving the last 8 miles where we dealt with high winds and down pouring rain as well as water and sand blowing across the road, the Gulf on one side and the Bay on the other side. Jim had to drive slowly just to see the road. It stopped raining just when we got to the Campground registration building, thankfully. We lost out small awning over the bump out. It's actually not lost but was torn away from the side of the RV by the high winds, so we will have to take it off when the weather clears.
