C B Smith Park, Pembroke Pines, FL

Landed here in the middle of Martina McBride/Trace Adkins concert with crowd of Derby proportions. This campsite happened to be one of the best seats in the house.

On farther South.

Departing The Great Outdoors, Titusville (check that website if you haven't already) and heading about 200 miles south to Pembroke Pines, FL near Caroline, Daniel, Heather, and Will's.

We didn't do it (we're pretty sure)

Nice RV washing guy fortunately discovered cut in roof excitingly before major storm moved into area. He provided quite adequate duct tape patch before we could purchase and apply slightly more permanent fix the following morning. This enforces the well-observed adage, "Go nowhere, do nothing without serviceable duct tape supply close at hand." This morning, wife has reported that error in refrigerator temp. setting has produced frosty fruit syndrome.

The Great Outdoors, Day 2

Pretty nice here (natives think it's very cold). About 71 high. If you didn't get the chance earlier and still give a flying Farsi, check out The Great Outdoors, Titusville, FL website. Tomorrow or Wednesday a nice fellow is going to come by and wash the salt encrustation from the poor Bounder. 'Til then.

Titusville reached.

For rather developed RV based city, please check The Great Outdoors, Titusville, FL website. I'll post some pictures of this place tomorrow.

Safely into Tipton, GA. Much smoother ride today. See way oversudsed above. Tomorrow, Titusville, FL.

Departure from home base Ashland/Huntington West KOA 8:21 a.m. Much ice encountered from night's assault. Roads pretty clear but I-75 S around Tennessee line!!! So many nonnegotiable potholes are like driving over a mogul field. Jarred coach so badly that table broke and unmounted from wall. Made target Sweetwater, TN in good time this PM and got unbelievably salt-covered tow washed. Now having delicious meal on honorable coach floor. (Just kidding, plenty of dining surfaces and we'll have table fixed by Sunday). Adventure continues. Tomorrow, Tifton, GA.

Can we Get Outta Dodge?

Not perfect cooperation from good ol' mother nature on planned takeoff date/time Fri., Jan. 21, 8:00 eastern, but could be much worse. http://www.weather.com/outlook/driving/interstate/wxdetail/41101?dayNum=2

Can we make Sweetwater, TN by that afternoon? Probably. Your thoughts and prayers appreciated.

Countdown now T minus 11 days and counting, whatever the 'T' may mean. Is takeoff correct?

Break from home base

Camped today at FoxFire, Milton, WV while we hit Target in a large way. Nice campsite - nice folks. No wrecks or major mishaps. Spouse still speaking. MPG between 5-8. More soon.
