What a Difference a Day Makes

Wednesday Morning – Saulsbury TN

Wednesday Afternoon – AAA RV Park - Union City TN

it may not be much to look at but it has ALL the goods. . .

awesome 50 amp service, great water pressure. . .

and best of all. . .sewer hookups. . .yaaa!

and all at Passport America rates of $16 per night. . .

very, very pleased!

as soon as we were set up. . .Donna and Larry picked us up,

and took us to PV’s HUT. . .again. . .not much to look at,

but a really, really great burger. . .diner style!

and a slice of homemade lemon icebox pie. . .yum!

later Wednesday me made a trip out to see Reelfoot Lake. . .

a Cypress Lake and Swamp. . .much like our area of the country. . .

only with semi-clear water instead of the muddy brown stuff we know and love.

my pics really don’t do justice to the lovely park

and boardwalk area where we we walked out to view the lake.

There was also a rehab center for injured birds of the area. . .

this Barn Owl was having an absolute fit. . .hissing and carrying on. . .

very dramatic and traumatized. . . I’m not sure it should really

be out where it can be harrassed by the public. . .

not that anyone was bothering it,

but it’s cage was entirely too close to all the foot traffic. . .

and check out this beauty I photographed out over the swamp. . .

I’m thinking it MIGHT BE a warbler. . .

but it’s really difficult to determine without seeing it’s markings. . .

it’s gorgeous though!

and of course. . .there must be more food.

a delicious Catfish Supper treat by Donna and Larry. . .

more fun Thursday morning at Discovery Park of America. . .

the guys were very agreeable to photo ops. . .

I repeatedly requested a Hummer for our tow vehicle. . .

to that, Dave was not agreeable. . .this is the closest I’ll ever get!

and that Donna. . .she’s a laugh a minute. . .

she and Dave make quite the pair!

She decided she simply MUST experience this two story slide. . .

she was thinking it was just the normal, run of the mill

slide you find in the park. . .ha ha. . .NOT SO!

She came out of there like a bullet. . .HILARIOUS!

We’ve had such a great time here in Union City

with Donna and Larry. . .

Will always be looking forward to

each and every time our paths cross. . .

Headed to Kentucky on Saturday morning. . .

RV TIP OF THE DAY

don’t forget about your bottle of Clorox Clean UP

that is needed to sterilize the water handles and such

at each park before you hook up your stuff. . .

if you’ve every watched folks stowing their

sewer hoses. . .you’ll know exactly why I am saying such a thing!

BE SAFE!

Today I Shall See My Friend Donna. . .

and hubs Larry, whom we have not seen since Summer 2012. . .

although we do stay in touch on FaceBook and phone. . .

She will kill me for this pic. . .but this is exactly how I think of her. ..

always taking a pic of something. . .she’s really good at it!

If you’ve read our blog for awhile, you may remember

when we park hosted together in fabulous Estes Park Colorado. . .

this was the view from our campsites. . . it was a great summer.

 

We’ve finished up our few days here at the

Thousand Trails Cherokee Landing Campground

and although it is lovely,

unless we just happen to be passing right by,

don’t really see ourselves returning. . .

We spent  Saturday

exploring nearby Collierville TN. . .

which also allowed us to do a bit of grocery shopping.

I thought I had stocked up really well before we

left Houston, but evidently, not as well as I imagined.

Yesterday, we washed the rig and the car.

They were so coated with pollen,

they were both almost yellow. . .


Our friend Margery says we may be following spring north,

which I find an exciting prospect as far as all the blooms,

but not so exciting as far as the pollen goes. . .

I know, I know. . .gotta take the bad with the good. . .

The blooms definitely make it worth it. . .

See you at the next stop,

‘til then

Janice and Dave

RV TIP OF THE DAY

Our Wilson Cell Phone Booster

really seems to be helping with our

Verizon service. . .so far we’ve had 4G,

even out here in the boonies.

Cherokee Landing Campground–Saulsbury Tennessee - Thousand Trails

we have arrived at Cherokee Landing Campground

in Saulbury TN at the height of the Dogwoods blooming

and they are glorious. . .

this is a beautiful park. . .however.. .please be aware. . .

if you are in anything longer than about 30 feet. . .

the number of spaces you can fit into will be limited to. ..

along the back fence in Phase I – water and electric only. . .

and these three spaces in the full hookup section. . .

that’s about it. . .

You can check out the rest of the pics of the park

here in this album. . .I have attempted to add

info about each pic. . .so if you look at them individually

you should be able to read the descriptions. . .
