We're in Alabama

We made the 264-mile trek to Robertsdale, Alabama (approximately 25 miles east of Mobile--halfway between Mobile and Pensacola).  We're in one of the few parks that still had spaces available in the area.  Given that, our expectations for the quality were set rather low.  It turns out that we're guardedly pleased.  It IS a bit on the rough side as far as roads and pads.





But the WiFi they offer is better than we've seen at any other 'resort' parks, the water quality is far better than at any other parks, the laundry facilities are comparable, and the satellite set up was a breeze.  The people here are very outgoing and friendly.  They have several group activities if we're interested; they even have planned a road trip to some Mardi Gras festivities on Tuesday, if we're so inclined.  If we weren't leaving Wednesday morning, we'd likely take them up on it.  So all in all, we did OK.

We'll be doing some sightseeing today, Sunday, and Monday.  We're trying to work around the weather, as it seems that everywhere we go outside of Texas there's an ABUNDANCE of rain.  Wish we could send a bunch of it back to Austin to fill the lakes there.
