December 18 2013 - Hanging Around the Lake

Yesterday we drove west to Jesup.  Stopped at WalMarts and Walgreens.  Of course, we had to have ice tea from McDonalds to make the trip home.

This is our camp spot for two weeks.  It is small and quaint.  I like it.  It has grass pads, the laundry room looks like it has been redone recently.  I think I like the openness.  I was having sunshine withdrawal.  We sit out today for awhile and I hung the lights on the awning.  Gary broke out the new grill that we bought when we were in Colorado over a year ago.  We had grilled burgers.  Yummy.
McIntosh Lake RV Park
 This is a water feature next to the lake.  There is a picnic table and lawn furniture and a community fire pit.


The is the club house with a new deck that extends over the lake.  Plenty of room to sit in the sun and read a book.  We have been invited to Christmas dinner.  Owners provide the turkey and ham and the guests bring the side dishes.


Everything is going well,, except Gary just went to the restroom and boom!  Same sound as when I  broke the pedal on the dang thing.  While he was working on it, he cracked the toilet too.  So walk in the dark is on our menu and a trip to town to buy a new toilet.  Yippee.  I think we will call this Gary's Christmas gift.

(Just glanced at the picture above.  It is gorgeous!  Looks professional if I do say so myself!)

Details:  This park is priced at $21.50/day or $300/month plus electricity.

December 31 2013 -- Happy New Years!

Image
I noticed that the last post was a Merry Christmas post.  Wellllllllll..... Happy New Year! Yesterday, December 30, we headed to Florida.  One more sticker added to the camper map.  Yippee! I held the camera for five miles with the intention of not missing the change of state sign.  I had it aimed at the side of the road and was viewing every sign along the way......about the time I pushed the button for this picture, the Driver (think next year we will promote him to Travel Planner--you know it is one of those things that employers do to delay a raise in pay) hit a BUMP! The next picture is on the way to our new campground.  It is called Whispering Pines in Silver Springs, Florida.   Gary booked this campground using our Passport America.  We get full hookup sites for $14 per night.  He has done a really good job picking out the sites.  Don't you agree he needs a new title.  Travel Planner he will be!  Diesel is a little high $3.82 to $4.07. Today we drove around O

Day 105; August 10 -- Woman's Work?

Image
Today the driver got up and took the truck for its 9:00am appointment.  They flushed and cleaned and changed the oil and then claimed they could not find any problems.  They suggested that we drive it and see if the cleaning and collapsed air filter correct the problem. I did the laundry, changed the sheets on the bed, cleaned out a couple of drawers, and tried to straighten the closet.  It seems to have more "stuff" than it did when we started? Is it a sign that we are ready to head home?  We get excited when we see signs with our family member's name on it? This is the Green Acres RV Park in Redding, CA.  It is what I was expecting California to be like.  It is a "picky" park that is manicured daily with two gentlemen that remind me of Uncle Ray.  (Maybe that it how I imagine California?) You can stay in the park monthly for only $3$0+.  I do think you have to pay for your own electricity. Last night the driver wanted to go for a drive, I wanted to

Day 19; Badlands and Wall, South Dakota

Image
This day was probably one of my best for this trip.  I had never been to the Badlands.  The weather was perfect.  Miss Priss was not.  Gary thought she should go along.  I decided I was going to get two shock collars.  One for her when she yeps, and one for Gary when he sleeps while driving. The Badlands was interesting. They had buffalo grazing and a lot of native grass fields.  We drove on dirt roads for 30 miles to cross this area.  The dirt in places was a white color.  I asked Gary what this was (I thought it might be salty) and he explained something about it did not or it did have a special chemical makeup that was above my head and memory. Our next stop was Wall, South Dakota, to visit the famous Wall Drug Store. I could not find my charms in this store.  I did find a purse I liked in the store behind Gary and his silent friend.  Handsome couple of gents!  Gary was full and content as we ate lunch at the drug store.  We were suppose to have hot beef sandwiches and I accid
