Nothing typical about today

Corbin KOA, Corbin, KY

Travel day today.  I was all loaded up.  We were all hitched up.  The Hall's were all hitched up.  And Uncle Steve had a rearing coach on his hands.  His front legs raised up as high as they could and then the error code said something about extreme tilt...or something similar.  

No problem, just switch over to manual mode and lower those front jacks.....WRONG.  It all began when Uncle Steve was messing around with the back jack which would enable him to attend to the Big Foot Pad attached to that jack.  It kind of got things out of sync.  The good thing is, he has a Lippert Leveling System and Lippert is very good with customer service and had a tech on the line quickly to assist.

The first part of our trip was an interesting drive.  The kind you had to be alert and fresh to handle smoothly as the road was anything but straight.

We were following the purple squiggle and as you can see, the twists were quite sharp.  That's why the truck and trailer icon looks like it is perpendicular to the road.  

We saw plenty of squiggle signs and some BIG arrows

as we played the guessing game...."I wonder what is around the bend."

It was some pretty countryside.  As we swayed from left to right around each bend. It kind of lulled me to sleep.  

When the road straightened out, Dad found a spot to pull off to the side of the road for a quick trip into the rig to use our bathroom.  He didn't realize it then, but it was a smart move.  We only had another 30 minutes to our planned mid-way stop ....or so we thought.  It seems they are doing some construction on I-75.  Have you ever experienced two lanes being scrunched into one lane on a well traveled road with everyone jocking to get to the head of the line?  It was stop and go for miles and miles and about doubled the time to get to our mid-way stop.  Momma said she was glad they had made a quickie stop earlier.  But I didn't get to squat earlier and I was READY to get to the grass.  Ahhhhhh.. I filled a bag!! (TMI??)

We located our stop over campground.  The gal in the office had a warm greeting.  Our escort guided us to our site, although his hand signals were a bit of a challenge to interpret.  "Which site do you want us to pull into?"  And then we discovered a surprise.  The sites are laid out so one rig drives in from one direction while the neighboring rig drives in from the opposite direction.  The shared post holds two power boxes.  And ....wait for it..... the one

water line had a Y.

Wait a minute.  This is a KOA campground at $40+ a night.  And we have to coordinate our water usage with our neighbor?  Atleast they are so close we could probably talk thru the windows.  "I say there sir, could you pass the Grey Poupon?"  (Are you old enough to remember that TV commercial?)  

I am sure missing my grassy yard to run and romp in.  I'm kind of glad this is just a one night stopover.
