Hanging Out in Clarksville, Tennessee

We left Goshen yesterday after having gotten my new crowns on my teeth. So far they seem to be doing well. I have no pain anymore and that is saying a lot after the winter I had.

We stayed last night at the New Vision RV Park south of Terre Haute (about 45 miles) and north of Vincinnes on highway 41. I don't always plug the rv parks, but this was a very nice park with long pull throughs and full hookups. We would have liked a little wider roads, but they were certainly navigable with our 40'-er plus toad. There was a large pond with fishing and the park was well landscaped. It is right there on 41, so easy access on/off the highway. They take ALL the memberships you have including Passport America, Happy Camper, FMCA, Escapees, etc. He wants business. He's only been open since 2001, but he really wants you to have a nice stay. He is open year round and lives right there. He also sells propane, so we topped off before we left. And he has the cutest, friendliest little black/tan miniature dachshund named Josie who greets everyone who comes in the door.

We left there this morning and traveled south. We are now in the Clarksville Campground in Clarksville, Tennessee. This appears to be an old KOA, but one of the more nicely kept ones we have seen. They have some 100 foot sites, which we would liked to have had, but they have a Newmar rally in here this week, so we got another instead. Most of the sites here are pull throughs. They accept Good Sam.

We unhooked the toad earlier and went in search of a restaurant since I can now eat solid food. We also did a little shopping as I had left one of the dog leashes at the house. So we are all set again.

We leave here in the morning. Have about 200 miles to go to Bay Springs Lake and Piney Grove Campground in NE Mississippi. We will be there until Monday morning when we roll to Red Bay, Alabama. While in Mississippi, we are going to visit some of Terry's family and attend the family reunion on Saturday. It's always a good time whenever we go there.

Till next time. . .

We stayed at the same campground last year after the Escapade. It really is a nice campground. Seems to be a good "overnight" location but not a destination. We did have some great Amish food while we were there though. Safe Travels.

Dale,

I forgot to say - I'm glad that the dentist work is over for you and that the new crowns are doing so well. Hopefully no more problems!
