Jeff Foxworthy is My Hero!

Departed: Ludington, Michigan  9:30 a.m.
Arrived:  Wauseon, Ohio 5:00 p.m.
Sunny's Campground

Hey friends,


We started out today in a little cloud cover, drove down to South Bend, Indiana where we stopped at Notre Dame and had a bit of lunch, looked around there a bit before saying good-bye to the Bells. The campus would not allow RV's to drive through the campus. I must say they have nothing on UGA, well except maybe the Pope.
Don't know if you can tell but that rock says Irish Green.




We then got on I 80/90 and drove west paying several tolls on the way.  My thought was, o.k. I don't mind paying tolls for nice highways, but these are getting pretty rough. I guess winter takes a pretty hard toll (no pun intended) on these roads.  After looking through our campground books we decided we could make to Wasueon, Ohio by 5 ish and go to Sunny's Campground. So here we are.... lovely setting the middle of some farm land.  There is a 9 hole golf course in the middle of the pasture, 17 dollars for nine holes including cart, (cow paddies free), horseshoe pits that were very busy with many players and their cheerleaders and their coolers, 5 lakes, 800 campsites and 1000 golf carts!! Every kind of cart you can imagine, all with an ice chest on the back full of beer.  Nothing wrong with that, huh!  The title to today's blog may give you a hint of the folks that are here.  We are trying not to stare too hard.  Lots of wife beater shirts and women too old and too fat to be wearing tank tops and short shorts! Bill promises that he's going to get a tank shirt before we finish our trip!:)  I do hear my favorite country songs loud and clear coming from my neighbor's radio.  We understand there's a live concert later on tonight by the Skeeters.You get the picture??? However they are having a great time for not much money!  There's something to be said for that! But we do have wireless and several television channels so I'm not complaining.


So we are sitting outside smelling the ribs and corn our neighbor is cooking on his homemade grill.  We are a bit jealous.  But nothing a Blue Moon and a little Jim Beam won't cure!
 The neighbors cooking ribs next to that red cooler.

Happy Camping!
