June
1 - Bill was up at 7:30 since we were headed to Maumee , well, Whitehouse is where the
campground is. He made plans to lunch
with his high school friends and we needed to get here and hooked up since the
tanks are full and with the heat we’re getting a bit of odor. It didn’t take long to eat cereal for
breakfast and pack things up. By the
time we hooked up the car we were on the road close to 8:30. Bill laid down as he didn’t sleep well (must
have been the excitement of seeing his friends) and I drove in the nasty
rain. He got up just as I was exiting
from the expensive Ohio Turnpike. The
West Virginia Turnpike was a much better deal!
Thankfully
the rain stopped before we did and our spot was available! Bill hooked up, emptied the tanks, showered
and headed out. I cleaned my disgusting
floors, did 2 loads of laundry, changed the bed and walked to the office to ask
about WIFI and low water pressure. I
discovered one of the bed sheets got left at home in the linen closet. Good thing I carry a set for the sofabed!
This
is a nice campground, Twin Acres. Lots of
trees, well kept, nice people! Most of
the lots are seasonal people. There’s
quite a variety of RV’s, park models and a few cabins.
Bill
was gone 4 hours! I was beginning to
think he forgot where he left me. They
all met in
Whitehouse as a courtesy to Bill for driving the farthest. Two of the guys drove down from Michigan but it’s only 2
hours. They had a great time catching up
and reminiscing. One of the guys has a
service dog that came also.

It
rained lightly on and off all afternoon, only increasing the number of
mosquitoes. They get inside every time
the door is opened. Not too many people
out moving about! The water pressure is
horrible so to get a decent shower it’s better to use our fresh water tank and
pump. I also had a issue of the power
shutting off and after 4-5 minutes it would come back on. Strange!
I finally called the office after 3-4 times and a guy came by but
couldn’t understand why it was doing that since no one else on our grid was
having trouble. I went from 2 AC’s to one
and it still did it and I realized it was the dryer causing it. Never had this issue before so will see how
it goes at other campgrounds.
We
finally had a light dinner of pulled pork and raw veggies. The fridge is starting to look like at home,
filling up!
We
can’t get satellite under the trees and the antenna isn’t much better so we
listened to some Sirius radio old time shows and read.
