Lake Robinson, Lexington, VA

Lake Robertson, Lexington, VA

This is a good informative link http://www.lexingtonvirginia.com/default.htm

Monday, May 11 Left Maryland and arrived at Lake Robinson around noon, it wasn't near the rush driving the roads getting in here to the park as it was the first time, even Sue was more relaxed, since we knew where the road led. This county park is one of my better finds.

Tuesday, May 12 On our walk around the lake today I noticed a few small trees that a beaver had cut down, the chips were still semi fresh. Those were the first fresh signs of live beavers, there must have been a bunch that lived here years ago, because they have cut down some big trees.

Greenbrier State Park, Boonsboro, MD
Monday, May 4 Arrived here around 1:00 and got situated in site C1, rained most of the way here and is still raining, the ranger said it had rained all weekend. Traffic was and is ridicules in this area.
My last years epoxy fix to the anti syphon valve in the black water flush line let loose this morning, will do better this time.

Tuesday, May 5 False assumption on the anti-syphon valve the epoxy job is strong as ever, the valve must hung up, working fine now.

Sleepy Bear's RV Park

Sleepy Bear's RV Park, Lumberton, NC

Wednesday, April 29 We arrived here around noon, I-95 thru SC is not good but they are working on it. This campground is from the 50's era, but everything is brightly painted and the grounds are clean and trimmed.

Thursday, April 30 We did the laundry at the campground, I carried it, then we went to Lumberton, Wal-Mart, Sam's, & Pier 41 Seafood for lunch which was a very good restaurant we both thought so. Meet another Bighorn owner here in the park and they seemed to have more piddly problem with their unit than us.

This inspired me to think about why the air conditioner could be freezing up, I think I have found the problem, the sensor that shuts off the compressor when the coils get to cold was not seated against the fins sufficiently.

Ft McAllister State Park, Richmond Hill, GA

Ft McAllister State Park, Richmond Hill, GA

Monday, April 27 We arrived here this morning around 10:00 nice park, nice coastal hammock area, nice deer flies & sand gnats, nice sites we are in #47, and lots of squirrels. Everything you need is conveniently located not to far away.

I only had to fix two things today the latch for the screen door fell apart and a piece of molding fell off, Super Glue to the rescue.

Tuesday, April 28 The trails here at the park are some of the best maintained trails with good clearance for walking and riding a MTB that I have seen and the roads are nice also, not excessively long but adequate.

Ate lunch at a good restaurant Southern Image, the east side of Richmond Hills on the Atlantic Coast Highway (US 17).
