Pedro's South of the Border

When we moved to Florida in 1960, we took many summer road trips all over the state and up and down the east coast. We escaped the cold harsh winters of New England. Now we are traveling to Florida from Washington. Rather than fly, we sometimes prefer the drive. Approaching South Carolina about 17 miles away from Pedro's, there are signs after signs about South of the Border - a landmark tourist attraction that even has gators. I have never been there, but it reminds me of the old days when the billboards were among the few diversions on road trips those days. Now it all seems so old, but charming at the same time. Gator land, Six Gun Territory, Silver Spring glass bottom boats, Sunken Gardens....that was before Disney World and Universal Studios. So Pedro is still going - wonder for how much longer?
