From Gainesville, Georgia and I drove for about an hour west to Trenton, FL, a tiny little town in the Suwannee River Valley whose claim to fame is that it has a major quilting jamboree each spring and a very well provisioned quilt shop. This, of course is why we went there, to further Georgia's objective of visiting every quilt shop in the lower 48. We passed through a few small towns en route, including Newbury which had a few interesting buildings. This area is "Old Florida", with a true deep south feel, a slow pace and a look and feel that probably has not changed much over the last 50 years or longer. By the early evening we completed the four hour drive to our next destination, Pine Island, on the Gulf Coast near Fort Myers.
