I know I owe you all a third part to our new Camper Van...well, not today. I only write this to catch you up on where we are. We are at Wilderness RV Park in/near Robertsdale, Alabama. We have stayed her a number of times in the past.
Yesterday after Marcia's Doctor's Appointment we went by Mr. Souvlaki in Tarpon Springs to get some Spanakopita (Spinach Pie) and Pastitsio to take to Dean (Marcia's brother) and his wife Caryl over in DeLand. They cooked up some pork and veggies, and together it all made a great dinner. We dr0ve over to the Cracker Barrel in Sanford and we both had a "so-so" nights sleep. With the heat and humidity the generator was on all night, and the A/C ran for much of the night. We were on the road by 6:45, got gas and coffee and headed along I-4, then the "East-West" toll road, and finally the Florida Toll Road until we hit I-75, to I-10 where we headed West.
We ended up in Robertsdale for a full hook-up so that at least we won't hear the generator all night. Tomorrow we hope to get into North Texas and on to Amarillo the next day.
The Camper Van drives so nice...very little noise, very easy to keep up to highway speed, with the only slight complaint being that it catches every time I get out of my lane. Marcia said she never heard the turn signal work so much while I drive...but without turning on the signal, it won't let me get into the next lane. And I do want to note, there were a number of times (more than 5) where it said "get back into your lane" when I was in my lane. Our gas usage is half of what it was with our old motorhome. It was a nice trip, all 500 miles. We arrived at 5 pm central time, and the trip included a number of rest area stops for this tired old driver.
And being tired and old, is my reason for not publishing anything else at this time....
