MG, the initials of Morris Garages, is a British automotive marque registered by the now defunct MG Car Company Limited, a British sports car manufacturer began in the 1920s. On our last stop in Florida we visited long time friends Jan and Rick in Yulee, a suburb of Jacksonville. The quaint town has a historic downtown and is close to Fernandina Beach and Amelia Island. Jan and Rick were gracious to let us park and live in our rig for a few days on their property. We had a nice, relaxing time with them, as always. They took us around the area giving us a chance to see a number of interesting sites along with tasting some of the local food and drink. Rick is a retired master automotive mechanic who owned and operated a renowned Volvo/Saab shop in the Central Florida area for many years. He is still actively working with a friend who collects vintage MG automobiles. Rick uses his skills to bring these, in some cases, rough vehicles back to showroom condition. He took us to the shop where the magic happens for a tour. The cars were in varying stages of reconstruction and the finished products were nothing short of breathtaking. It was hard for Janet and I to pick the one we would most like to drive around in although we did have our favorites. Jan and Rick are avid RVers in their own right having traveled to many areas throughout the country. We are hoping to hook up with them as we continue our travels to enjoy some adventures together. Our next location to explore is Savannah, GA where we are looking forward to taking in the sights, history, food and drink in this iconic southern port city.
