A Pleasant Sunday Drive

It cooled down nicely last night so sleeping was very good.  We were very tired and actually went to bed at 9:00 p.m.  We were on the road by 8.  The picture of Sandy shows what she does most of the time we are traveling.  She can no longer get up the the chair by herself so I lift her up and she sleeps the miles away.  We  had three cities to drive through today...Nashville, Birmingham, and Montgomery.  Carol successfully cruised on through them without a hitch.  There seemed to be a lot of traffic  I guess everyone else was taking Sunday drives.  We only stopped once at a rest area and once for gas.  We made great time and were in the Ozark KOA by 3:30, driving a total of 400 miles.

It is hot but there is a nice breeze blowing so we opted not to turn on the air conditioner so we could enjoy the night sounds.  After supper, we took Sandy for a walk around a small pond on the campground.  It was pleasant.  There is a huge snapping turtle in the pond.  Some kids at the park teased it with a stick and it jumped up and bit the stick so we could see how large it was.  We are sitting outside and I am working on this entry.  It is so nice to sit outside and we are able to hear the frogs singing.  If the motorhome doesn't cool down enough, we may turn on the air.  

This is site #20.  It has a concrete pad so leveling was easy.  It is a small campground with only three other campers.  It is located off of US Highway 231 but I don't think there will be much traffic later in the evening.  Tomorrow we will lose a hour as we cross into Florida.  Our next stop is a Florida state forest campground outside Inverness, Florida.
