2010

We spent the summer in Illinois with the family.
Grandkids are wonderful!

We stayed at Spindler in the fall of 2010 and look forward to returning this spring!
We left with our friends Dick and Donna in November. We stopped to visit our daughter in Champaign, again, this year. Our new favorite campground in the Champaign area is D & W Lake. It's very clean, small and friendly.

Our travels begin again, after the night in Champaign, we traveled to southern Illinois and stayed at Marion Campground....very nice.
Note: I don't recommend taking 45S out of Vienna, IL. It is a rough, narrow road and you will have to cross the scariest bridge ever! Well, almost, anyway! It is so narrow that we thought we would lose the side mirrors off of the RV.



The 3rd night we spent in Jackson, TN at the Jackson RV Park...terrible! Our Tennessee friends tell us that there aren't any nice campgrounds near Jackson, sadly.

Our 4th night out, we stayed at Corinth RV Park in Corinth, MS. It was very pretty!

November 7th, we checked into Town Creek Campground in Columbus, MS. This is a Corps of Engineers park. It's beautiful and peaceful! The sites are large and wonderful with large cement pads and large adjacent squares with pea gravel, picnic tables, grills and fire rings. It sits right on the Tom Bigbee Waterway.

 This turned out to be our last fire for the winter, sadly. We love our fires and cooking on them is the best!

The fishing is supposed to be good even though we didn't catch anything!

Even though we didn't catch any fish, Dick had some in the freezer, so, we did have a fish fry! Yum!

...ready to fry!

If you are ever in the area, there is a great little restaurant in West Point, MS., just down the road from our campground. It is Tin Lizzie Cafe and we had great BBQ there!
We stayed at Town Creek until the 15th and then traveled to Foscue Creek Park Campground another very nice Corps of Engineers park in Demopolis, AL.! It was a rainy day but still pretty and we were right on the water. We only stayed one night because we were heading south, again!
