Once a Month

It's  hard to believe it has been over a month since I last wrote.  We left NAS Jacksonville, FL on 7 January, 2016 and drove 405 miles to Escapee Park Rainbow Plantation in Summerdale, AL.  This is really a nice park, one of our favaorites in the Escapee Rainbow Parks system.  We are in a site under a tree, which I don't care for, but most sites are.  It isn't the tree so much that I don't care for, but there is no grass under the trees.  Anyway, this is a very active park.  There is constantly something scheduled at the club house, and folks get together a lot to do things out in town.  Here is a  picture of a get together for a 4:00 PM Happy Hour at the club house.

We have participated in a breakfast at DeRailed Dinner, which is a truck stop that enjoys rail road decore.


There has been entertainment on occasion.  We really enjoyed the Sweethearts of Branson, Denny Yeary and Shelia Renee.  They know our friends, Ron & Kay Ravoli who also played a year at Branson.



This campground has a beautiful club house.  We have enjoyed this campground so much, that we have added our name to the ERPU list.  This is a program that offers a 5 year lease with the option of renewing for $1 at the end of the lease.  If you don't renew, you get your money back, as long as there is someone on the list to buy your lease.


We joined our friends, Bob & Sue Guthery that have an ERPU lot here.  They just their lot  a couple of months ago, and look forward to moving out of their least lot in Livingston, TX.  It has been great to see them.  They are going to the Florida Good Sam Rally at Tallahassee with us.  That is where we are headed next on the 2nd of Feb.  It will be good to see the Florida group again.  After the Florida Good Sam Rally we are headed to Thousand Trails Orlando and will meet up with Bob & Sue at Orlando Hamcation. That should be a lot of fun. 

I have used my new Eagle One antenna a lot since I have been here.  I check into the RV Service net almost every morning and at least twice per week, I check into South Cars. 

Y'all travel safe, and I'll type more later.
