This 'n That and Other Things . . . . in California: June 15, 2008

Ok…I know…it’s been awhile since I posted a blog. Believe me…I’ve tried several times! When you are way out in the middle of nowhere…at least that’s what it feels like sometimes…the internet is not your friend!

You know the feeling when you are finally finished with your blog and you click on publish…and it disappears!?! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Anyway…we have gone a long ways!

We stopped off in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and spent a few days…hot and sticky days I might add. If you are ever in that area…check out this area!

Then on to West Memphis, Arkansas…on the Mighty Mississippi River! That river is BIG and WIDE! We stayed at the Tom Sawyer’s Mississippi River RV Park…right on the river! www.tomsawyersrvpark.com/ That was exciting…the barges…paddle wheelers or paddle boats on the move all day and all night up and down the river!

We stayed there a few days…it was so relaxing.

We checked out Memphis, Tennessee…what fun that was. Don’t miss Beale Street in Memphis when you are there! They close down Beale Street on Saturday and Sunday afternoons and you can hear the blues everywhere! Best place for food and blues on Beale Street? BB King’s of course…where else?

Ever had deep fried dill pickles? NO? Well that is a must if you go to BB King’s…that was one of his favorites! They were so good we went back a second time! Just look at those ribs and wings and deep fried dill pickles!

Then on to Red Bay, Alabama…home of the Tiffin Motor Home Plant…where our RV was made. We needed a little work done on our RV…so back to the factory we went. http://www.tiffinmotorhomes.com/abouttiffin/heritage.php While work is being done on our RV…we stay in the Allegro RV Park for free! So we have been here almost a week. Monday morning…we head out of town and on down the road.
