East Bank & Home

Our last evening at Foscue was spent inside listening to the rain. It sure sounded wonderful on the roof and lasted all night long. The downside was everything was wet in the morning. It stopped long enough for us to pack up and get on the road.

It rained a good part of the 200 mile trip to East Bank. East Bank is another COE park. It is on Lake Seminole, the park is nice but it has ants. We stayed at the park about a year ago – they had the ant problem then too. **** Bud here, Dog-dick knats too! ***
We decided after one night it was time to get on down the road. I believe we are both getting the “horse returning to the barn syndrome”. We went into Chattahoochee for breakfast. What a trip, I guess the economy must really be slow – the restaurant was pretty run down. We made it thru breakfast, filled up the truck, then went back to camp and packed it up. I’m not sure if we will stop half way home and camp or try to make the 240 mile trip today. I’ll let you know.

There was rain, wind and clouds most of the way back. We talked about stopping at Manatee Springs but it was raining so we drove on. When we got to Crystal River we decided to eat at Crackers and then head for the shed! We arrived home around 5:30 – 6:00. Boy, it was real weird driving down the driveway. When we left the pastures were crunchy and brown; now they are soggy and heavy with grass! Everything in the house was fine. It looked really big after staying in the RV. And it didn’t even wiggle when you walked around. Our showers felt soooooo good and roomy!

We had a wonderful time but “There’s no place like home”! Thanks for joining us on the “Gophers Trails”.
