So here we go again, our first trip of the year. We left Tennessee on Wednesday morning heading south. Our first stop was the Falcon's Nest campground on Shaw Air Force Base. We'll not be staying there again... It seemed that most of the "campers" were more "residents" most of them worked on base and the others were long term. Now, we did realize that it's an AFB so the flights coming and going were no surprise, but playing taps and reveille was...
No frills, not that we needed any, but it doesn't hurt. No cable or Internet and as a matter of fact our Verizon Mi-Fi didn't even work, and the connecting for the sewer was at the front by the road?? Oh well, it was only one night, we survived.
Then off to Bluffton, SC to visit my folks for a few days. Yesterday morning we left there for sunny Florida! So here we are are at the Pelican Roost RV Park on the Mayport Naval Base in Jacksonville. Right after we arrived an old friend of mine I was stationed with in Orlando, many, many, moons ago, stopped by for a visit.
The campground is in a great location, right on the water. This morning we saw one of the ships going out. (See the stacks behind the other campers)
It's the USS Arlington LPD-24, home ported in Norfolk.
We took a walk around the campground and area...
It's a really nice place, free cable (that was being fixed) and Wi-Fi.
They even have their own beach...
So nice!
We are loving this weather!
Palm trees swaying in the breeze...
Life is good!
Tomorrow we head farther south to Tampa...
