Spring Creek Campground
Montrose, Illinois

Just check it out.  Here we are at this quiet campground with about 25 sites, a pond

and electric only.....but you can't complain about the price!  There were several rigs on the other side of the campground

but we were by ourselves with a field behind us.  There was a 10 foot wide mowed path running along the field.  Momma said it was a super place for me to run off lead.  The campground owner is very friendly, laid back and aims to please.  All I had to do was come when she called.  Notice the rope tied to my collar?  

I guess I was only using 3 of my senses.....  I was so focused I forgot about using my hearing.....nope, didn't pay any attention when Momma called me....just tooo many super smells, sights and things to bury my nose in here in Illinois.   I guess you could say my stay wasn't as good as it could have been.  Oh well, at least I was outside enjoying the gorgeous weather.

Now Momma and Dad, on the other hand, had a very pleasant, unexpected experience.  The group of 7 rigs on the other side of the pavilion from us were a camping group....Chapter 51 Escapees from Indiana.  Dad was grilling dinner and they came over and invited Momma and Dad to join them....which they did.  What a FUN group.  Momma said she just expected to chat a bit but instead they were entertained.  The hosts had extra door prizes that they shared with them.  They even included them in the trash/treasure activity.  They also played a game that is kind of like Taboo and charades.  There were two teams.  Each team had a 'guesser' and the team members gave one word cues trying to get the guesser to say the word.  Then they played using charades ...no verbal cues.  OH MY GOSH.  What a fun loving group full of laughs.  RVers are the friendliest people.  Here's a shot of a few of the new friends.

As it turns out,  a few of them are heading for the same Escapade Rally that we are going to.  We hope to see them in Sedalia, Missouri on Friday.
