Its a beautiful sunny day and time to leave Florida for the RV rally in Perry Georgia. Either we can take a long roundabout Interstate route to get there or head cross country. Although it goes against my basic beliefs, we're going to program the GPS to take us on roads that don't even show on the paper maps in an attempt to save a few miles.
The secret to driving the back roads is to do the speed limit and ignore the dozens of cars that back up behind you. Maybe they'll take time to smell the roses! Image going through a small town with warnings about "no trucks" (which basically we are) and venture forth to find street that cars hardly fit in. We found a couple of towns like that but managed to fit through the streets and really enjoy the views we encountered. Fortune favours the bold. I enjoyed the drive much more than using the interstate. Is this an epiphany?
We spent 5 days at the FMCA rally. We went to seminars on all things RV. We had free coffee days, free ice cream and peach cobblers, but it was the free evening entertainment that kept us entranced. Every night a new show with world class entertainment kept us from vegging in the RV. Here we are waiting for the Lori Morgan show. If you're a Country music fan, you know who she is! If not, think tall, slim and sexy with a voice that doesn't stop. Not that I noticed.
After learning all things RV, we head out on further adventures. Our next stop is Talladega Creek Resort, in Alabama. Why that name? Well, firstly, its about 5 miles from the Talladega Super speedway, one of the top NASCAR racetracks.
Secondly, its right beside a pretty little creek that has lots of fish and in the summer is a mecca for tubing.
And, when you say resort, what more can I add. Here we are camping with all our friends.
Just because we're at an all inclusive resort doesn't mean we can't find some "me time".
Grammie takes a break while I clean and wash the entire motor home. All that driving in the rain has covered Harvey with a layer of road crap thats needs some attention. Its a beautiful day and I'm enjoying listening to Harvey purr with the attention. We've got to be ready for our next adventure.
Wow you sure get to see great places, I sure envay you but keep going as the postings are great.
