Morning Guys,
Packed up and headed up the road to Birmingham, AL in a couple of hours. We have to be in Calera, AL the 26th to have our dealer (Burton Campers (http://www.burtoncampers.com/)) correct several items (punch list) on our 5er. Since we're going to be on the road anyway we thought we would mix a little business with pleasure. Plans are to be out for 2 to 3 weeks. After getting the "punch list" completed we have no real plans.
Plans are to stay overnight tonight at Capitol City RV Park (http://www.capitalcityrvpark.net/)in Montgomery, AL. Leave there tomorrow (Monday) for Birmingham South Campgrounds (http://www.birminghamsouthcampground.com/index.asp)in Pelham, AL. We've been at the Pelham location several times in the past and lots to do and see around there. A lot of good restaurants in the area too. Thursday morning it's a 15 mile run back down to the dealer in Calera. Not sure what we will do after that. It depends on what time we leave the dealership.
I was told by a fellow amateur operator about a SP near Opp, AL. Frank Jackson SP (http://www.alapark.com/FrankJackson/), suppose to be very nice. WiFi, full hookups, etc... We've discussed stopping off there for several days on the way home. Also, discussed the possibility of swinging east and visiting the Stephen Foster SP (http://www.floridastateparks.org/stephenfoster/)on the Suwannee River. We have not been there since we were kids. I recently saw some photos on another RV Forum that reminded me how nice it was.
Will have the HF rig and laptop along. Will login when we can and also try to get on the dx spotter.
