                                                      WE ARRIVED! Here we are at the pool deck at Hilton Head National RV Resort We are hard at work here at HHRV.  Brian works close to 40 hours a week, myself, around 34.  If they need extra help we volunteer.  This is a paid work camp host job, plus free Full Hook Up.   But we usually work 4 days on, Monday thru Thursday with 3 days off, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.   Its been challenging.  Physically for Brian (out in the heat and humidity)  and mentally for me (learning a new complicated reservation software)  But we have almost 2 months under our belt now and things are getting easier.  Its good physcial and mental exercise for both of us.

ROAD TRIP! 1600 Miles in 30 days                    We had a rough start heading down to Lakeland, Florida.  Between Brian's prostate issues, and Hurricane Milton, we had to be very flexible.  Plans were changed numerous times.  But we made it, stayed healthy and had a restful, fun time. Here's a photo travelog, of our journey south. First stop, boondocking at Mohegan Sun Casino  Next stop, Country Acres campground, Lancaster county, Amish country, which was lovely, charming and quaint. Getting around Fantastic, Bird in Hand Farmers market!  YUM! We met up with Sun n Fun friends, Barbara Ann, and Jeff, Emily, and Brian, for coffee in Intercourse, PA.  They all live close to where we were staying.  That weekend Emily and Brian McClure were having a Highland Games at their home and acreage and invited us to come stay with them and enjoy the fun and games. Lot's of men in Kilts doing macho things. ...
