Mid Illinois and nice visit .Camp #94


6/20/14 Pulled outa camp at 1000hrs. Short drive today from Shelbyville to Marshall Illinois. A whole 70 miles! Oh, the pressure, the pressure !! ha ha ha ha !

Had a bit of overcast skies to the North and had about 20 minutes of mist enrt.. Had to run the wipers a few times. Nice country roads and a lot of corn. It's way more than knee high. By the time the mist stopped the roads were dry. 85F.

We did a little shopping at Wally World enrt. Wanted to stop for breakfast but never found a parking lot big enough for our 43ft rig. So I loaded up some stuff to cook breakfast tomorrow.

Pulled into Mill Creek Park and set up. Is it beer time yet?? HMMMM!! Only electric here but a water spigot is within reach and they have a dump. Nice Park, again.

Our friends Mike & Charlotte live 22 miles NE of here and we're all getting together over the weekend. It's been 2 years since we all were together and we're looking forward to seeing them.

Since it's Friday we had the usual amusement of watching the weekenders setting up. I wonder if any of them ever practice backing up??? It's hilarious watching the LOVE !! I always feel sorry for the kids watching mom & dad loosing their cool. You can see the kids cowering! Same antics at a boat launch.

As usual, the afternoon got so hot we had the AC on and just hid out. Usually about 5PM it's okay to go out. I even put off setting up the sat dish til later. Ya know, the beer gets too warm too quick !!

6-22-14 Visited our friends in Vermilion, Ill. And camped in their yard last night. We all went to Bocum(?) and listened to a blues band. Had a tasty breakfast and lots of gabbin' . We're back at our Mill Creek camp tonite. Gonna just veg out tomorrow and head further North Tuesday A.M.. Manuevering West around the Chicago traffic. Hope to be in Wisconsin at week's end.

Gotta start thinking about reservations during the 4th of July weekend. Somewhere..hmmmmm




REMEMBER, LIVE YOUR DREAMS AS TIME GOES BY QUICKLY. !!
