Our campout was a great end to a great summer!

September 19 -  We had a club breakfast this morning.  As usual, too much food but the leftovers will be for Sunday breakfast.  Afterwards Bill and I started getting things packed up for unloading of the RV at home.  Dinner was EARLY, 4:00.  We relaxed and read as it was rainy out today and got showered and met the group for dinner.


Our friends Linda and Fred from Brooksville finally arrived just in time to play Nickel BINGO.  We didn’t win but Linda loved the game.  She wants to show it to her ladies group.

September 20 – Another group breakfast.  I put my caramel rolls together last night not knowing how it would do in the Convection oven.  I tried using the recommendation in the book and it didn’t seem to be hot enough to make the caramel so I changed it to the recipe temp and just picked a time to bake.  I had to add more baking time but they turned out good.  I also donated the scrapple I brought back from PA for Tom to fry.  It was very good and I enjoyed it for sure.

We sat out on the front porch with Linda and Fred for a long time and several other members stopped to chat and meet them.  We hope they will join our club so we can see each other a lot more often.  As it started drizzling again we all headed back to our RV’s.  We invited them over at 4 for drinks before our group pot luck at 5.  I put together my Asian salad for dinner and when Fred and Linda arrived just she and I had drinks.  Dinner was good, pulled pork and lots and lots of side dishes to top it off.  Everyone was stuffed!

We all met back later for a final game night.  Some of the BINGO players opted for cards tonight but we still had a table of 10.  Linda won 3 games in a row!  Lucky duck!  We said our good byes to them tonight as they planned to get an early start home to host a big last minute family picnic tomorrow.

September 21 – We were up extra early to get the RV totally ready and the car hooked up so once breakfast good-byes were over we could get on the road.  Bill did not want to be late leaving and deal with lovebugs.  We managed to leave about 9:15 and got home at 10:30.  It was a long day unloading and sorting mail and putting things away.  It’s always a sad day.  We love seeing our family and being “home” but it means the end of another adventure and the wait to get on the road again!

PS – The washer at home was broken when we got home and on the drive from home to storage the odometer no longer worked!  It just never ends!
