McDaniels Kentucky, Laurel Branch COE campground

Arrived yesterday at 3:33PM..first time we've stayed at a COE (Corps of Engineers) Campground. A 7 day stay is only $66.50, about $7 per day..Now, that's more to our liking, yessir ! Now we see why everyone in the full timing circle like these parks ! The setting here is great..lots of woods and spacious sites. Internet and phones work great. Went to a  local laundramat about a 1/4 ml from the park and got all our laundry done..first time since we left..couldn't get any more dirty clothes into the laundry bag.Tried to get L.P. gas at the suggested General Store but their tank was pulled 2 days ago...Been trying to get our Dish Network "new" HD turbo tv dish, which we just got before we departed, to work and after 3 hrs of attempts to catch a satellite I came to the conclusion that it wasn't gonna happen. Got the feeling that the LNB's are bad. Tried to get a service tech appointment, on the phone and internet, and that's like "impossible" so we'll wait til we go into Leitchfield tomorrow to see if we can find a Dishtv location with a service Dept, most are only in the sell, sell, sell world...gotta fill the LP gas tank in town 'cause it's getting cool during the night and we haven't topped off the LP tank since we left about 3 weeks ago. (& we're low on beer!!) Running outa heat (or beer) is NOT COOL!..or maybe I should say it is!!..Our friends, Jerry & Kathy, are here. Brought us some shaved corned beef this A.M.cause they had an excess of it..AAWWWW!!..Haven't had TV in 5 days and kinda going thru "commercials" withdrawal..LOL.. Our friend, "Billie", is patiently awaiting our arrival in Corbin,KY..looking forward to seeing him. The good news for today is the exhaust system on the motorhome is holding it's own..so far so good!..Gonna have our mail forwarded to us by Terra..we went over what's in it via phone today and it sounds like my "commercial" withdrawal will be fixed when we get it..if it wasn't for 3rd class mail I wouldn't be anybody :)..we found out that there's several COE parks in the immediate area..sounds like some neat touring coming up..there's a dam just around the corner so that'll be a must see...We caught a glimpse of the  Rough River today and it is pretty, as are the mountains and valleys here. Ya really gotta pay attention while driving in Ky. Kinda like a roller coaster effect..long ways down if you screw up..the locals cruise these roads at 55MPH and this yankee is nervous at 40MPH..no wonder Nascar drivers are mainly from down south..absolutely beautiful all over the area..Hope this night finds everyone in good spirits..REMEMBER..LIVE YOUR DREAMS AS TIME GOES BY QUICKLY..Charlie & Heather
