~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We drove to this RV park before booking a spot.  It is slightly more than 12 miles from Tom Brown Park...and the driving route is easy.  We booked a space for Saturday night [2/12].  Here is what we saw on that day...we were at site 80, here is the map...




We parked a-okay when we arrived.  It was a back into spot, we have an AWESOME backup camera....there was some, lively discussions, about the roles of a spoter versus the role of driver; who got eventure dibs, and who called it.  These discussions remain open..We didn't take pics of the Era set up...whoops...I think I got some nice night pics around the park.
SHOWERS AND RESTROOMS SUPER CLEAN 5*****






I thought this looked like a million stars at night...


 Things learned;
* Decide WHO is in charge of what item...and USE CHECKLISTS!!!
* Have default places for keys and valuables
* YES Class B has to be leveled [and we did :) ]
* Know how to turn on ALL the lights on...

I will post a better summary when I have a moment...I will also add this...
be PREPARED to be bumped [on the head, the ankle, the foot] as you navigate your small paradise on wheels....

It's a great RV...and we WILL get the hang of it....

Trip one : no one was murdered in their sleep and we all came home together so that is a success!!

LESSON: 2 dogs and 2 people have to LEARN to fit into an almost queen bed.  Dogs total weight is 27 lbs...

Davey hid inside his Gibsonton bunker....watching the road for us...map of our route is this.... When we arrived....wagging his tail he greeted us at the door... These guys grew up together in Western PA.  Back in the day, Randy's parents and Davey's parents were best buds.  Randy and Davey were like brothers....and Davey's sister Heidi and Randy's sister Sheri were close.  In the late 1970s Davey's family moved to the hamlet of Brandon Florida on Lido Drive.  This is where I first met him in 1981 or 1980....This charmer [Davey] made Florida look like paradise and Randy & I moved to Florida in 1983. We have officially added Davey to our family pod, he will be relentlessly cared for, visited, and expected to entertain us in Gibsonton for the future :)   :)                 R a n d y  &  D a v e y  People, let me tell you 'bout my best friend He's a warm hearted person who'll love me till the end P...

I recommend their facilities as clean [not super clean] and plentiful.  I will rate this one as "any port in a storm" as a place you can get everything you need, even stay overnight....chances are at a premium compared to other choices. The drive was peaceful and sunny....this Benz drives smooth like a car almost....just longer length...  The drive was Tallahassee, using Tom Brown Park as my home base....to Midway FL...to Thomasville GA.We We parked next to t...
