At several spots along the highway there are signs supporting gun ownership like the old Burma Shave Signs: He tried to do a violent crime/I had a gun/He did the time. If it is peace you seek/Do not take guns/From the Meek.
The rest stops in Indiana prohibit overnight parking! Do they think it’s better to have a sleepy driver on the road? We pulled into a WalMart parking lot in Shelbyville, Indiana. I only have about 100 miles to go, but I don’t want to get in so late I’m hooking up in the dark. So we spent the night in the parking lot. Bless WalMart for their corporate attitude towards RVers.
It rained again. I think it has rained every day except two. Okay, Universe. Have we not made up for 16 years in the desert? I can’t check into the RV park until 1:00 pm, so we took the morning easy, hoping the rain would lighten up.
I am planning on visiting my sister-in-law Julie for a nice long stay, maybe 21 days. The park has a reduced rate for longer stays, and I’m ready for a break. I was researching my projected next stop to see my cousin in State College, only to discover that the KOA in State College charges $61 per night! Sorry, Karen—it may be a very brief visit! Or I may head south after Ohio and catch the Pennsylvania friends and family after winter is over. It’s fun being totally free.
I made it to Cedarbrook Campground in Lebanon, Ohio by 1:30, and am parked in a beautiful spot surrounded by orange and yellow trees and dozens of squirrels, and the sound of acorns rolling off the roof. I hesitantly put out the slide. I hope I can get it back in. I did some housework and reorganized a bit. Julie is coming over after work. I’m safe and I’m with family. Living the Dream.
