Moving Day

Nothing real exciting to report today as we just drove to our next destination - in the rain!

However, we did find an unexpected surprise when we arrived at the RV park in Vero Beach, Florida. The park holds 300 RV's - 298 of those spots were filled when we arrived. Good thing we had reservations!

Unfortunately, the spot they have for us is right next to the freeway. You know how when you stand next to a busy, high speed road waiting for the light to turn so you can cross and cars go by and you feel the "woosh of wind" as they pass? Well, that's what it feels like INSIDE the RV. It feels like the whole RV gets nudged as the semis and other cars go by. And, especially in the bedroom, it sounds as though they are driving right through the RV. Sure hope we can get some sleep this week.

While we weren't expecting that, that wasn't the surprise I mentioned. When we checked in they gave us two little bags of treats for the dogs. How nice is that. But even better is that they have a TWO ACRE fenced off leash dog area. This is a first for us at an RV park.

The dogs absolutely love it. Needless to say, we only let our three loose when there aren't any other dogs in there. Oh, our dogs get along well with other dogs well enough. But our three have a special game they play. Other dogs don't understand the game at all. And our dogs don't like other dogs trying to join in the game. So we only play there when other dogs aren't around. It is a busy area, so often when we get there we have to just continue on by.

For those of you that haven't seen the game, it's called "Smash Puppy." The name dates back to when Slugger was just a puppy. The game hasn't changed since then except it has gotten even more rough as time has gone by. Oddly enough, Slugger thinks it's a fun game.....for a while. Then he comes running to one of us for protection.

Time to go see if the park is empty for another round of Smash Puppy!
