Florida Springs RV Campground
Bonifay, Florida
We were on our way to Savannah, but decided to spend the night in the Florida panhandle to see some of the local sights.
We wouldn't want to miss
Wausau, Florida, the self proclaimed "Possum Capital of the World". A monument at the town's crossroads pays tribute to the possum who, in times of need, provided food and fur for the local residents.
The "monument" is a small enclosed corner of a yard with benches and a wrought iron fence. Evidently, people use the benches when contemplating possums or recipes. Anywhere in the country, when a strolling possum becomes roadkill, it faces Wausau before it's final demise.
We also continued on down the road to Panama City Beach.
On the way back to the camper we didn't see many eating places on this country road so when we saw a smokin' pig we didn't pass it up. Apparently this was a carry out place because the only seating was a porch swing with a sign that said "Employees Only". Even so, we thoroughly enjoyed the delicious bar-b-que pork while we had a picnic in the truck.
