South of the Border not bad for evacuation

We've stayed at SOB several times. Cheap, convenient by I-95 on the SC/NC border. It's fairly full this week. Just above the forecast zone for Irma's tropical force winds. Getting breezy, rain expected.

We left SW Florida at 4 a.m. Saturday in the RV to head north east, despite the dire reports of jammed roads and no fuel. Amazed to find I-75 as light as we've ever seen it, all the way up to Ocala. Highway 301, same, I-95, same!! Began wondering if the rapture had come and we were "left behind." :B

Stayed overnight with close friends in Beaufort, SC, who have an unoccupied RV pad at the garage. But the Low Country has been under evacuation, too, so we came up here yesterday. Anxious to go home but not until Irma's moved past Georgia.

Still plenty of sites if anybody's looking for a place.
