Ken Brown

The drive from Jax to our destination in Georgia was a little longer than we expected.  We arrived at a small RV park in the woods east of Jesup.  The RV park has brand new utilities for electric, water and sewer with new garbage cans.  The owner met us on the short gravel road which led to the RV park.  We got hooked up and settled in.  A squadron on bugs invaded us.  After a winter drought this area has had rain everyday for three weeks straight.  The bug population had exploded.
We called fellow proton patient Ken Brown to meet for dinner in Jesup.  Ken and his lovely wife, Marcia, live in the country on the other side of Jesup near a village called Surrency. 
Linda & Linda with Marcia & Brown

Ken is a pastor at a church in Waycross.  Marcia recently retired after a long career as a high school math teacher.  Ken finished his treatments about a week before Tim.  Ken and Tim's daily treatment times were usually close to each other.  We kidded each other that we'd keep the treatment table warm.  Marcia & Ken stayed at Fernandina Beach near Jax.  I found out that Ken's family lived in the Tampa Bay area decades ago and Ken & Marcia have visited many times.
We had a great visit and dinner and said goodbye and best wishes with big hugs.
Next day we drove to Charleston, SC.
