We left Metropolis, Ill on Friday the 13th at 1100 and poked South along The Great River Road about 60 miles. Did a little shopping enrt and recamped in Columbus, Ky at The Columbus-Belmont State Park at 1400. First impression upon pulling into park was WOW ! Overlooking the mighty Mississippi River and very manicured.
Once we got hooked up the camp host stopped in, got us registered and oriented. At this park, the host delivers firewood and ice ! He explained the park layout and recommended things to see while here. The park has washers and dryers and spotless bathrooms. That's rare in a state park. The weekend had almost 100% occupancy but was empty by 6PM Sunday night.
Our new AC that we installed in Ill. has been working perfectly but wouldn't ya know the temps went to 75F and there hasn't been much use for it!
Verizon signal for our phones and Mi-fi has been weak so I won't try posting any pictures this time and I'll keep this blog short.
We were going to stay for 2 days but because it's such a nice spot we extended 2 days and found out that Ky. Parks are having a 2 for 1 special during weekdays which makes our pullout date Wed the 18th.
Next move should put us in Mississippi cause we're gonna drive right on thru Tennessee.
REMEMBER, LIVE YOUR DREAMS AS TIME GOES BY QUICKLY!
