Callahan, FL.
67 deg. mostly cloudy, no wind.
Forecast = Mostly cloudy with slight chance of showers in the morning...then partly cloudy with slight chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon. Highs in the mid 80s. Southwest winds 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 20 percent.
It took Jim a little longer than usual to get CLT hooked to the back of me. He had to make sure that the air hose from my brake system was routed so that it didn't get hung up on anything while I made turns or went through dips or over humps. Then, there was also the little cable from the break-a-way switch that had to be attached to the back of me and needed to be routed also.
Even with the extra time spent doing all of that, we still pulled out of the parking lot at Creative Coach a little before 9:00. : )
After returning to I-4, we headed back towards Tampa where we turned North on I-75 and retraced our route back up to Ocala. Just North of Ocala, we turned East on Rt 326 and took it for a few miles until we came to US 301 where we turned back North. 301 then brought us all the way up here to Kelly's Countryside RV Park, which is a few miles North of Callahan and right on US 301.
I had never been to this park before, but I can sure see why Jim and Linda like it so much. The folks here are very friendly, they have sites of all sizes to accommodate just about any size RV, and if you're just staying over night or for a few days, they even have some pull-through sites so you don't even have to unhook if you don't want to.
For Jim and Linda it was a pretty long travel day. It was 1:20 when we pulled into the RV Park, so we were on the road for 4 hours and 25 minutes and covered 232 miles.
Jim and Linda both felt that they needed a couple days to just kick back, do laundry and reorganize some of the things inside of me that needed to be moved for repairs. So, when Jim registered me, he payed for 3 nights. : ) That's just fine with me. It was pretty nerve wracking at the repair place, having to always be ready to be worked on at few minutes notice, and then at times, worrying about what they were going to find as they made the repairs.
Yep, I think 3 nights here in a nice quiet RV Park will be just fine. ; )
A Point to Ponder : If anything is possible, then is it possible that nothing is possible?

Still Organizing and Campground Filling Up
Rantoul, IL.
74 deg. scattered clouds, S. wind @ 7 mph.
Forecast = Hot and humid. Mostly sunny. A 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon. Highs in the mid 90s. Southwest winds 5 to 10 mph. Heat index readings 97 to 102.
It didn't get as hot here yesterday as was fore-casted. There were some clouds and I guess that kept the temperature down a little. Today though, it's starting out mostly sunny, and I think the temps will get quite high.
Jim and Linda spent most of the day yesterday organizing things inside of me. Linda's got all the desk stuff in the desk, Jim put catches on all of the desk drawers so they wouldn't come open while we were traveling, and both of them went through more boxes of stuff and either found places for it, or threw it away.
Lots of RVs came into the campground yesterday. It's not full yet, but Jim says that there'll be more coming this morning, and by the end of the day it will be.
Linda is really enjoying the new recliner. For a couple weeks now, she has either had to sit up in front in the passenger's seat, on a kitchen chair, or on the couch where she's not very comfortable. Jim says that maybe the recliner is too comfortable for her because now every time she sits in it she falls asleep. ; )
Don't know just what's happening today. I heard Linda say that she thought the 4th of July fireworks were going to be tonight already. I would think they would wait at least until tomorrow night or Monday night to have them, but no one asked for my opinion. I'm sure that Jim and Linda will find plenty to do, and if they can, they still want to get some of the boxes out of the storage room in the bathhouse. (Paul and Louise were way too busy yesterday to help). And, I know that there are still some cabinets and drawers that need to be organized inside of me.
Did you know that the record for the largest firework display consisted of 66,326 fireworks and was achieved by Macedo'S Pirotecnia Lda. in Funchal, Madeira, Portugal, on 31 December 2006?
