Turkey Run - 2015

We arrived at site 257 around 2:30 on Monday, October 5.  It was a nice day to travel and set up.  We took our time to set up.  This site is the one we have been wanting for two or three years.  We had to reserve for a Monday to get it but so far we really like it.  We are very close to water and the restroom and can see the play area and canyon that the boys play in from our dining room window.  The nights have been cool but in the 70's during the day.  The leaves haven't changed much.  Each morning has been very foggy but usually by 10:00 the fog has lifted.  We have taken several long walks in the campground which Sandy likes.

Today, Wednesday, we went into Indy which accounts for Internet service.  We went to Camping World to shop and look.  The last two years our visit has included looking at motorhomes.  I think we may be getting closer to the big decision of whether to go from a pull trailer to a motorhome.  We can't afford a new one so we look at used ones.  We found one that we could be interested in but it is older with more mileage than we thought we wanted.  It is a Winnabago with many, many upgrades (window covers, inside day/night shades, washer/dryer, basement air conditioner).   It was owned by a retired Navy man who kept meticulous service records so we know the complete history of the motorhome.  We decided to go back to camp and discuss the pros and cons.  Right now I don't know what decision we will make. In the meantime, here are a few pictures of the trip so far.
Sandy waiting patiently for the trip to begin.  This will be the first time she had riden in our new car.

From this picture you can see how close we are to the play area and the canyon beyond.  You can also see that the leaves haven't changed much.

Tomorrow we plan to relax around the site.  Friday we drive back to Decatur to pick up Hunter and Keegan for the weekend.  Next week we will be at the Covered Bridge Festival.  I hope the weather continues to be as good.
