This is actually my third visit to this park- The first visit was actually a little before I was actively into collecting stamps, so it was a visit to the town pretty much, I didn't actually visit the actual site of the Visitor's Center, the old Plains High School, because we didn't know about it. We did drive by the old train depot, which isn't a part of the park, and also drove by the Carter's actual home, which is just off the main street of town. Also in town is the "Billy Carter Gas Station Museum," which deals with the President's famous or infamous brother.
On our next visit, which was April 22nd of last year, I did manage to get to the high school part, but didn't get to the farm portion of the park, and missed two stamps as a result.
For this visit, I decided to add it to the trip, and "do it right." So, we left St Augustine just before 8 in the morning, and arrived at Plains High School VC about 1 in the afternoon.
The site stamp is a duplicate, the other is a bonus.
So for now, Jimmy Carter is complete. All sites have been visited, and all stamps are in.
We also spent about an hour grazing up and down the block long main street of town, antiquing, and Bette got an ice cream cone.
Then, we headed the 19 miles up the road to Andersonville.
