Lake Robertson, Lexington, VA

Lake Robertson, Lexington, VA

Monday, May 12 We arrived at Lake Robertson which is about 10 miles Southwest of Lexington VA. The road from Lexington (251) then (770) was a great road, kept your attention, not a road that Sue liked. It stopped raining before we got here but has been cloudy. There are some trails here and looks like some good photo opportunities when the sun comes out.

Tuesday, May 13 Today was a beautiful day temperatures around 70 and sunshine , moved to a better site where we could get satellite reception and that I can exit easily. Had to clean pine pitch off the truck hot water worked the best . We went for a nice walk this afternoon on Hawk Creek, Deer Lick, and Squirrel Run trails. Met a nice couple Levi & Zoe Norman traveling in Shelby’s class C

Wednesday, May 14 There were about 5 deer outside this morning grazing through the campground. It is rather cool this morning in the 50’s

Thursday, May 15 After our walk this morning we went to Lowes, Wal Mart and back to the campground.

Friday May 16 Rained some last night , today has been intermittent sunshine, went for walk around the lake. I know that it is Friday because there have been a few more campers appear.

Sunday May 18 Cloudy today, Sue did the laundry this morning, the weekend campers have returned home and we are almost alone again.

This has been a very nice campground, Barbara in the office and Ken & Bonnie the campground host made this a pleasant and memorable visit.

There were a group of Boy Scouts camped next to us, Saturday they all went for a canoe trip and that evening they were all either super tired or as well behaved as you could ask for.

Gambrill State Park, Fredrick, MD

Gambrill State Park, Fredrick, MD

We arrived at Grambrill this morning and squeezed into a site. This campground is about as convenient as you could get, it's only a couple of miles to Eddie's house.

I would rate this park high, the campground is small, 20 something sites & only a few that this 5th wheel will fit into, restrooms are modern and always clean, hot showers, miles of good trails, you could walk to Camp David and Catoctin mts. about 12 or so miles North of here..

Monday, May 5 We are the only people in the campground besides the Host, guess people must be working.

Thursday, May 8 It is raining here today, not a Florida type rain and it is over, it's an light all day rain.

Monday, May 12 Has rained all night and is still raining this morning, will be leaving here and heading to the Lexington, VA area this morning.

Kosmo Village, Richmond, VA

Kosmo Village, Richmond, VA

Today we left Florence, SC and ended up North of Richmond, Va. We were going to stop at Catail Creek Campground but after driving 4 miles down a nice paved narrow road, the campground was closed. We ended up at Kosmo and were lucky to get a site because NASCAR races were here in Richmond.

Only 148 miles to Gambrill tomorrow.

Swamp Fox, Florence, SC

Swamp Fox Florence, SC

Convenient to I-95, hot showers, laundry, rate it 5 or 5 1/2, there are quite a few oozers here, park is well kept, grass mowed, etc.. Best sites are 121 thru 125.

Only had three things to fix today

1. Leak behind enclosure for the black water flush.
2. Lost sewer cap, that I remember putting on in the morning.
3. A screw was lost or missing on the front corner of the underbelly, so the air was catching it and it was hanging down.

We are going to visit Danny Spencer this morning, who lives in the brown house after you cross the Lynches River, east side on 378, take first left go to the end, turn right at corner with the hound dog (looked like Walker's to me). We had a good visit, it was really nice seeing Danny again.

Blythe Island, Brunswick, GA

Blythe Island Regional Park Campground

Shortly after we arrived at the campground and got set up it started raining. The campground gets a 7, it gets a lot of use, and to pricey $27.00.

Will be gone in the morning

The house is closed up and spending the night in the RV.

The plan is to stop at Blythe Island Regional Park (county) in Brunswick, Ga.

Hard Hat

I am in favor of a new law being passed that requires old people to wear hard hats when within 15 feet of an RV

It used to be unblemished and now.....
