2:30 club

Jan 25/16  Weather - high of 63, low of 50.    Quite mild today.  Cloudy so it will hold the heat in at night.   We traveled north on I75 then west on I10.   We thought about 3:30 it should be time to look for a campground, and this would be with the 1 hour time change back so it is 2:30.   We like to think we belong to the 2:30 club.  We drive 230 miles or get off the road at 2:30 pm.   Really.    We aren't in a hurry.  We have all winter to get somewhere and all spring to drive home.  One thing we noticed today was all the RV's on the road.  Wow.   We lost track of the numbers.   And it seemed they are all headed into Florida.  

the park is full, here we are right out front
We got off at Holt to pull into Eagles Landing RV Park.  Oh, Oh.  They had a "No Vacancy" sign out at the entrance.   After I popped my head out to talk to the fellow at the office he said he could put us in the overflow, no water, no sewer but we could get 50 amp and it was a nice level spot, easy in and out.   "Sure, why not we are just in transit for the night".   Come to find out it was a good sized park and filled with mostly seasonals, not many on the move like us.   We found this kind of amazing, that it was full.
