September 17 – We’re over halfway
home! Good thing we got that AC working
as we certainly needed it last night.
Welcome back to the Sunny South!
JP and Bill |
Bill’s friend, JP lives near Cordele , GA
and the plan was to call him a few minutes before reaching the exit for his
town. As the time approached we decided
it would work out to be our lunch stop so we found there was a Pilot Truck stop
at the exit. We filled up the RV and
then parked out back where lucky for us they had a row of pull thru spots. Sometimes there are only back in spaces and
we can’t do that with the car in tow. I
started getting our lunch out and Bill called JP and he was there in less than
5 minutes. The school where he teaches
is literally just up the road. He
visited with us as we ate and then since we didn’t have far to go to our stop
for the night, he took Bill to see his school and the athletic facilities and
then to his house for a tour. JP taught
with Bill at West Orange and Ocoee HS before
moving his family back to his home town in GA last year. They both enjoyed their visit although it was
short.
Our view of the duck pond |
We had less than 100 miles to Hahira , GA
where we were staying at another ½ price campground. We pulled in behind another RV and the place
was looking a little full. We had called
in earlier and were on the list. What a
nice little
campground. We were in the first space facing a little pond that you can catch and release fish and there were ducks and geese. The spaces were gravel and close to level with full hookups. I’ll write a good review on that one!

I George’d burgers and made some
Waldorf salad with my Ohio
apples and we had the leftover sweet potatoes.
It was very hot out and we are just not acclimated to it. Give us a couple of days!
Tomorrow we will be back in Florida . Wow, can hardly believe the summer is
over. We will be meeting up with our
camping club in Bushnell tomorrow for a fun weekend to finish off our summer.
