Back in Florida

Carey State Park finally opened up after the hurricane, so we made our way down for a short stay before heading to Salt Springs Recreation park. The park had only been opened one day before our arrival. Unfortunately, due to the high risen waters, the spring was closed for the duration of our stay.

We made our way down to Winter Quarters RV park, where we had a two-week stay as our daughter’s wedding venue was only 15 minutes away. This park was on I-75, and the traffic noise was constant and annoying. Needless to say, we did not have a good night’s sleep the entire time we were there. We could no longer make the noise, so we moved to a nearby state park the day after her wedding.

When we tell people, we travel the U.S. in a fifth wheel, most are amazed and think it’s great. However, like most things in life, every day is not paradise. For the most part, we try to stay in state parks or areas where nature surrounds us. Sometimes, especially traveling the east coast, one has to stay in an RV park. The majority of these parks have zero-lot line campsites. You are on top of your neighbor and tend to have a higher noise level. We wanted to share the atmosphere of our surroundings to let you understand it’s not all butterflies and roses. But, for now, we wouldn’t trade this adventure and endure the few not-so-pleasant RV parks we may have to stay in.
