RVing in the Family


There we sat....in Indianapolis...all the appointments and business handled for this trip...deciding where exactly our next destination might be. The next thing we knew we were on the road, heading southeast toward South Carolina... with Tim along for the ride. Tim had his eyes on a motorhome that he found on the Internet.  How many times in life can you take part in an offspring embarking on a new aspect of life?  This was great fun.    We were glad to be along for the adventure.
Fast forward about 550 miles...Here are the guys in Anderson, South Carolina, making a thorough examination of the 2002 Tiffin Allegro. Tim had done considerable investigation before the trip so there weren't any big surprises. It was a successful journey. Now there's another member of our family enjoying rving.  I can see lots of fun on future family outings, 4wheeling and camping in some great spots.     

But for now, Jerry and I are pausing right here. Since we haven't explored South Carolina at all we thought we would stick around.  Besides, the Smokies are a perfect spot to take in the Fall colors.  Turns out that just west of Anderson, SC, is Springfield Campground, a beautiful Corps of Engineers park at Lake Hartwell.  With our Golden Age Pass the rate is $11 per day, with 50 amp electric and water, and a gorgeous view of the lake.  The rain moved out after our first day and it's sunny/60s. There are scenic byways calling us.  We'll post as we go.  See you later.
