Bye Bye South Carolina -- Next Stop Alabama

The lake at Carolina Landing

We enjoyed our stay at Carolina Landing RV Park. The Park is set on a lake, and we made the long walk down to it three times over the three weeks we stayed there. It's a nice walk down but a very steep climb back up again. Lots of good exercise!

There's not too much else to do in the Fair Play, South Carolina, vicinity in April. The towns of Anderson and Seneca are nearby and have all the stores-- all the important ones anyway:  Walmart, Hobby Lobby, Home Depot, Sam's Club.

So we mostly hung around home for the duration, enjoyed the mild weather and built a fire or two. 

Consequently, there's not much to talk about this time around. We still have a mouse problem. This guy is a wily critter and has managed to avoid all our many traps we've put out for him. Mark plugged up the hole between the space under the fridge and the space under the stove with steel wool. We're pretty sure that's the entry point into the house, though I'm not clear on how the thing is getting up into that spot to begin with. Hopefully that small change will confine the mouse problem to the basement. We'll see how it goes.

That's about it.

Tonight we're spending the night in the parking lot of a Cracker Barrel in Pell City Alabama, on our way to Arley (also Alabama). It was here or the Walmart, and I don't like the Walmart parking lots. They're too busy and too bright, and often it's hard to find a suitable spot to put out our slides. Besides, if I really don't feel like cooking, Cracker Barrel will do it for us! And tonight they did.

Have a wonderful week. Spring is springing. Trees are greening. Plants are growing. Life is stirring. Summer is on the way!

God bless, and safe travels!

Our lake walk destination. Getting there was easy--
getting home, not so much

Nothing like a good fire when you're camping

Our boondock stop for the night. We're up against a grassy
patch and have our slides out. Yay!

We are THAT close...but we're parked
at the Cracker Barrel

Finished up a few baby blankets over the weeks we were here. I'm making hats with them now...
