First Paid Campground

Sunday, Oct 21, 2012  Got on the Road around 8 am this morning and traveled to Princeton, Illinois, Jim's birth place.  We parked the motorhome and tried to find Beryl and Dorothy's graves but I couldn't remember the name of the cemetery.  Because it was Sunday and we didn't have much times and had to abandon the quest and move on.  Stopped for the night at a KOA in Crawfordville, Indiana.  This was our first paid campsite.

Crowfordville, IN KOA

Monday, Oct 22 2012 In the morning we took Highway 231 south to avoid Indianapolis  and then Hwy 231 through  Bloomington  and picked up I-65 heading south.  The good news today is we found a Break-buddy around Scottsburg.  The guy gave us good directions and I got a cash discount and paid $250 instead of $300.  The bad news I drove the motorhome down his street which had a cul-de-sac at the end.  I had to unhitch the car and have Sunni move it out of the way while I turned the Motorhome around.

I-65 goes right across the river to Louisville and we both though that was going to be trouble but it turned one to be a low traffic day.  We caught the 64 over to Lexington and and the 27 into Nicholasville.  Had some problems getting into the apartment complex where John and Ruth are but all was fine.  We were talking to them on the phone trying to find the turn.  Ruth said, "I can see you! I can see you."  Turn left at the light."  It seemed to work much better than the GPS which wanted us to make a U-turn.

We took the motorhome out to Camp Nelson RV park on the Kentucky River about 7 miles south of Nicholasville.  It was down in a canyon which lack sunlight but other than than and being far from our kids it was okay. Paid for four weeks.  Most RV Parks close during the winter back here which seems kind of odd because the weather isn't any worse than Spokane where there are RV parks open all year round.
