On The Road Again


A week ago today on Tues. morning around 11AM we departed Sebring, FL on our summer trip in the motor home. It was the height of the love bug season so when we stopped at Ashburn, GA for the night the front of the coach was covered with black bugs and bug juice. Since love bugs have an acid in them that will ruin a paint finish if not removed promptly I spent nearly an hour scrubbing them off. They are harder to remove than grass hoppers or honey bees. We stayed at a PassPort park about 5 miles west of town. It can best be described as a redneck RV park. IT was on a golf course. The camp host left a golf cart with us so we could tour the golf course and lake. In spite of first impressions it was really a nice quite park that we would stay at again. On Wed we continued north on I-75 through GA between Atlanta & Chattanooga we saw a few places where the tornadoes had passed through. The trees were all broken and strewn around like match sticks on area had to be over 1/4 mile wide. We spent the night at another PA park at Jamestown, TN again a very nice RV park that we would return to. Thur we continued on north & west arriving at friends Paul & Mary Osborne's in Campbellsville, KY. While here we park in the drive way between the office and garage. Sat. was the annual Kentucky derby Party that Mary hosts for family and us. Mon we drove to Louisville where we visited cousin Barbara Wheeler. Sat morning Paul & I drove out to Green River Lake to look at the high water. The RV park is under water and the water is 1/2 way up the picnic shelter and basketball goals. We have seen very little field work that has been done so far.
