Having completed my 4 county target list for the day shortly after 4PM, I realized that I was only 14 miles from the nearest Camden County station and still had almost two hours of daylight. Two counties to go.......

So, it's now 4:30 and I am 25 miles from Darien (McIntosh County). I call my contact and it goes to voicemail. Since going I-95 to I-16 to I-75 is the quickest route home, I decide to head to Darien anyway. I called my contact 4 more times on the way, but still no answer. I'm hoping to catch someone at their station, but when I get there, no one is there. It's just after 5, but the sun is still high enough to get decent pics. As I debate my next move, the phone rings and it's my contact. He tells me that someone will be there to assist me in less than ten minutes.
