Florence, SC

This place looks like the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. It looks like a small resort town with all the local businesses on one side (where Walmart has conveniently placed itself to out-compete the Mom and Pop shops), and all the big chain stores near the Florence Mall. It feels like home and certainly made a nice stopping place for the night.

Just off of I-95, south of Florence, sits Honda Way, home to one of Honda's larger manufacturing plants on the East coast. Here, Honda employees manufacture ATVs and PWCs. This plant seems to provide thousands of jobs to Timmonsville natives and inhabitants of the surrounding cities. More significantly, it reminds me of my favorite Supercross riders that currently ride for American Honda, Trey Canard and Josh Grant! Hope to see those guys kick some butt at Daytona this evening!

We are just over six and a half hours from our destination.
