Short driving day. We are now in Southern Palms RV Park in Eustis, FL. After lunch, we went to Albertsons to get shrimp to cook tomorrow on the grill. Then we went to Lowes to look at saws, wood and hardware to make a cabinet door for our new TV. Our 2006 rv has old tvs that are not digital ready

Today was another driving day. We are spending the night at Lees Country Campground in White Springs, FL. Just south of Atlanta, we saw a sign that said there was a major accident just north of Forwyth, GA. The truckers said the southbound lanes were closed, 2 fatalities, so we got off and moved west to US 41 and south to Perry, GA. Of course on US 41 we were slowed by painters (20 minutes). The Flying J took our real value card, but the sequence was different - credit card first, and then real value card.

Walked for an hour this morning, and, after breakfast, we went to the Kennesaw National Battlefield Park - nice museum, movie about the battle and campaign for Atlanta, then Publix on the way back to the MH.

Yesterday, we found out that Flying J in Resaca, GA no longer accepts the RV Real Value Card. No more one penny per gallon discount, although they still honored the cash price.

Today, we moved to the McKinney COE Park on Lake Altoona. Then, after setting up, we made a trip to Publix.

This morning we left Athens, TN about 10:00 and headed north for a drive on the Cherohola byway trail. After a few miles of twists and turns, we saw, and took pictures of Bald River Falls.

After visiting a trout hatchery, and having a picnic lunch, we headed back to tour the Lost Sea. It is a cave, with an underground lake. Not the most exciting, but not too expensive.

This evening, I am planning to pay bills.

Drove the MH from Raccoon Valley to Athens, TN - 60 miles - long day. Then we took the Mayfield factory tour where we saw milk and ice cream being packaged. Of course we had to taste some.


Of course we had to wear hair nets:

Today was a quiet day at Raccoon Valley. Marilyn did wash, I sent out my monthly email, and I put titles on pictures on my computer. Cliff & Marie Clingon are coming over for a glass of wine tonitght.
