R-pod Rally At The Kentucky Horse Park - 2011-06-25

We were lucky enough to be invited to the annual R-pod rally this year at the Kentucky Horse Park. A lot of fun and great people...much like the T@B people.  :-)

Huntsville

I had a business trip to Huntsville Alabama through the week of June 11 - 17. I told my boss I'd save them a small forune by driving down with my T@B in tow and stay in a campground for $20 a night instead of $180/night at the Westin where the conference was being held. I started out the first night at Monte Sano state park but was quickly re-routed to the U.S. Space & Rocket Center campground by the camp host at Monte Sano. That worked out great as the Space & Rocket Center was right around the corner from the Westin! I went to the Space & Rocket Museum on Tuesday and made the two hour drive to Red Bay, AL to tour the Tiffin Motorhome Factory on Monday. Tiffin is our dream RV for retirement...or before retirment if we can swing it  :-)  I didn't get a lot of photos of my T@B that week...like none at all, but got some of the museum and the factory. Take a look...

2011-04-02 The Chair Incident At Caesar Creek State Park

The first pics here show the basic campsite and set up followed by the chair disaster pics. It was a windy day and I needed to run an erand from the campground. The fire had all but died out and was just smoldering coals, as I drove off looking at my camp chair I said to myself, should I move that chair back? I figured no, because when I left the wind dropped off to nearly nothing so thought all was safe. But when I returned...

The Campsite...



When I left...

Upon returning...LOL!

2011-03-12 Some Pre-Season Camping At Caesar Creek State Park

We went to Caesar Creek this weekend as predicted and Carie was able to join me for the both nights although arrived much later than me on Friday, 10:00 pm. I got there around 5 in the afternoon. She planned on studying but we had so much fun just hanging out chatting fireside and playing games inside after dark that she never got any studying done so today she'll be hard at it!

We saw a half dozen deer right by our campsite, a racoon the second night who was probably psyched to see campers once again after this hard Winter LOL and the first night he left little footprints all over the truck. As I was arriving on Friday I saw several turkey and an otter!, Yeah, an otter! Too cool! At first I thought it was a mink but way too big to be a mink. Unfortunately all the wildlife sightings happened too fast to get any pictures but Carie did get some good pics of us hanging out camping...



Here's our window monkey. He's been hangin' out here on our T@B door window since the T@B Factory Tour Rally in 2008.


I'm not really ticked off in the least even though I do look it in this picture!  LOL!
