On August 22nd, we returned to Georgia for the first time since May 19th, over three months later. It was a great 3-month tour. We learned a lot about ourselves, how to work together in a small place, how to diagnose and fix things that Lola threw at as, and enjoy a ton of sights along the way. Here are some data points about this trip for your information (data below is from May 1st, when we started back on the road, and includes days before we got Atlanta):
- Miles traveled – 2,898
- Stops/Campgrounds visited – 23
- Nights of camping – 124
- Gallons of diesel consumed – 347 (this doesn’t include gas for the Volvo)
- Average MPG for Lola – 8.35 MPG
We planned to stay in Atlanta for 11 days so we could catch up with friends and relatives as well as make some visits to various doctors. We’ll take a short, two week run up to the NC Mountains in search of cooler weather, then back to Atlanta for a couple more weeks.
Next update will be after we return from North Carolina in a few weeks. Looking forward to fall and our next trip!
