In this case it was a pretty minor disagreement: whether to take I-526 around Charleston (Google) or follow US 17 all the way through (GPS). US 17 is shorter but generally slower so, again, I am puzzled why the GPS chose it at the faster route. But I was familiar with both routes and didn&#8217;t have a strong preference, so I took the GPS\/US 17 option.<\/p>\n<p>The route was familiar as we have done it southbound previously. Besides several construction sites &#8211; the worst one being a short section where I-95 was inexplicably reduced to a single lane when there was no active construction &#8211; it was an uneventful trip.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the most significant event occurred as we were exiting the Savannah South KOA. The RV tires hit a huge pothole as I was pulling onto US 17. It was a hard, jolting hit and I feared a blowout. But the tires held. Whew!<\/p>\n<p>Our home for 4 nights will be the Lakewood Camping Resort in Myrtle Beach SC. I paid a little extra for the privilege of an &#8220;oceanfront&#8221; site. I guess I had visions of looking out my window and watching the surf. But all we see is a huge dune barrier. Disappointing.<\/p>\n<p>I will provide a full campground review in a few days.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>211 miles via US 17, I-95, and US 17 again.
