Friday the 11th – DAY 10 – Trip to Zephyrhills, FL. 2013

Mornin’ came and we were up fairly early but th’ heavy rains had caused a few problems which were dealt with and we were out of th’ park by 10:15 and on th’ road to th’ “Ho-Hum RV Campground”, located in Carrabelle, Fl. on th’ “Forgotten Coast.”  4 years ago when we were by this area, th’ water was as blue-green as it could be.  This time, not so much.  Don’t know if the oil spill down here had a lasting effect or what.  Still really pretty though.

Well, ol’ JW took Hwy 98 along th’ coast for a scenic view.  We went through Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Panama City, St Joe and Mexico Beach, just to name a few.  In a month or so, it’ll all be packed with Spring Breakers.  Right before we got to th’ campground, we saw this sign, “BEARS?” in Florida???  Guess so, we’ll have to keep th’ ol camera ready for some pics.

We arrived at the “Ho-Hum RV Campground”, at 4:15pm.  Cable TV on each site and WIFI is available, (HA HA, here we go again, we’ll see).  Really a nice campground, no frills, no grass, no cement pads but nice packed sand/gravel pads and the view from our site is excellent.  

We are about 15’ or so from the gulf waters.  Setup was pretty quick (except for un-hookin’ th’ car an dolly,)  JW said that was pretty much a pain, (mainly because of his non-operating as intended wrist) but we’ll get to do some sight seeing now with th’ car.  First order of business, after setup, was supper at th’ Seineyard Seafood Restaurant ‘bout 8 miles away.  WOW, good seafood and th’ price was ultra low.  When we got back to th’ RV, we decided to take a walk out on th’ 200’ pier, (just in front of our RV). 

Wanda and some other folks that were out there, kept hearing somethin’ splashin’ out in th’ water.  Ol’ JW calmed everyone down by tellin’ ‘em it was probably just a big ol shark or somethin’.  Thanks JW, that’s all we needed to hear, HA HA.  Time for some sleep.  Oh, and by th’ way, didn't see any bears, th’ TV has 90 some odd channels and works great, th’  WIFI, “don’t!”  HA,  Catch ya later  .  .  .
