New River Gorge – Day 9

15 March 2021

I left the hotel in Greensboro at exactly 8:18 am and anticipated arriving at Amelia Island around 3:30 pm. Like the rest of the trip, nothing went as planned. Everything was good until I got to Savannah. There was a horrible crash on I-95 and three lanes of traffic were stop and go for an hour. One car was on an embankment upside down. There were three or four cars involved. There were a lot of people next to police cars and the fire truck so hopefully no one was seriously injured.

As it was, I arrived at the Addison on Amelia Island around 4:30 pm. There are new owners: Louisa and Ron. The Addison has changed hands twice since I last stayed here. It’s a bit of a schlep to get to it from I-95 but Fernandina Beach (the town) is a lot like Key West in house types and quaintness. It also has a lot of good restaurants.

I think you can see Key West style architecture from this photo of the Addison Courtyard.

Ron recommended Artes Pizza on 3rd Street. I ordered online and walked the five blocks to pick it up. The had some of the usual vegetarian fare such as margarita pizza but I opted for the “Vegetarian” pizza. It was ready by the time I walked down there and I brought it back to the room and ate it on the balcony overlooking the courtyard.

The Addison is really quite nice. I’ve stayed previously in room 15 but the room they put me in, room 10, is a little over the top. They also have a wine social in the afternoon and, of course, breakfast from 8:30 am – 10 am. If I sleep in tomorrow, I’ll probably do the breakfast. I told them I preferred vegetarian but it wasn’t essential.

The most important feature of any B&B – the bathroom.

Tomorrow is a 6 plus hour drive depending on traffic, bathroom breaks, etc. I would expect to get home anywhere from 2 pm – 5 pm. All in all, it’s been a good trip. I built my confidence back up with the Pilot Mountain hike, got to zip line for the first time, got to stay in the Amicalola Falls lodge – an unanticipated treat – and most importantly, got to see Jimmie and Stephen.

With day light savings time and my return home, I wonder how long it will take me to get back into my routine? Or do I want to?

P.S. I’m still a little sore from the hike and my knee is still a little tender. However, it’s a good overall body ache – it means I accomplished something.
