Two Days at the Florida Super RV Show


We thought we were only going for one day; but after we got home, we realized by looking on a map that missed an entire section and a vendor building. You get a two day pass so back we went. It tired us out. A guy offered us a golf cart ride up to the entrance and didn’t hestitate to accept.

The entrance to the Florida State Fairgrounds 

The following are some pics I took of roaming entertainment throughout the fairgrounds.

I was going to take his pic and called Carl over.

There is a man in the bush. He walks around and stops in different places. He’ll talk to you.


First Week in Florida

First off all, I haven’t posted anything because I forgot to activate my Jetpack and campgrounds we were at didn’t have internet.

Great weather on the way down but cold after we got here. We stayed for three days in a nice place between Dade City and Zephyrhills.

We are now at Hillsborough River State Park. Got here last Tuesday, January 16 and leaving January 23. Another nice park. This park is in the woods with spacious sites. It has been full every night. For warmer weather, they have a large pool, many activities, and trails. One night it was below freezing here and one night it went down to 34. We kept nice and warm. Weather now changing for the better.
This is our site.

Ready, Set, Go

We will be leaving tomorrow morning.  The temperature went up enough to melt most of the snow off the roof. Our neighbors are leaving too this weekend and will park where we are now out front.

On Our Way Home

Spent two rainy nights in Tunica, Mississippi - Monday and Tuesday. We had a terrible thunderstorm Sunday night in Biloxi.  We got wet hooking up the car and got wet again taking it off. However,  Tuesday during the day turned out quite nice.

We visited all seven casinos.  Only one casino we betted in because we had the card from the Biloxi casino.  It was the Gold Strike. We each put in one dollar which I soon lost. But, Carl won $20. That is all we gambled.

We wanted to check that area out since we heard so much about it. Not too impressed. Area looks like it is going down a bit. One big hotel, casino, and convention center is shut down - Harrah's. It is a good stop over place to camp though.

We are stopped for the night now in Champaign,  Illinois a nice family campground on a little lake just off I57. Heading towards home tomorrow.  Should make it and hoping the winds aren't as bad as they were late this afternoon.

All in all, this was a really nice couple of months way.  Had good weather, a good time, and met a lot of really nice people.
