We have definitely covered a few miles since the last post on day 2. We wrapped up our visit with the Birds of a Feather motorhome club in Oklahoma on Saturday night with a big cook out. The food was great as was the company. Cecil Moore did a great job of overseeing the cooking. On Sunday morning we headed back up to Interstate 40 and east. We drove to Shirley, Arkansas, to
see our friends Don & Vicki Leith. This is one of the couples we trekked down to Florida with last winter. Don & Vicki are living in a local RV Park while building their new house on Greer's Ferry Lake in Central Arkansas. We were able to go out and take a tour of the house with Don that evening and then had a wonderful dinner with the Leith's at that coach. Monday morning saw us heading out again but we'll be seeing the Leith's again next month as they are joining us at the Monaco America Rally in Virginia.

rt parking lots at Savannah, Tennessee, and Marietta, Georgia. On Wednesday we arrived at Stone Mountain State Park in Georgia. Stone Mountain is a massive outcropping of rock and the state park in dedicated to the history of the Confederacy. On the side of the mountain has been etched three of the great Confederate Generals riding their horses. The
re is a cable car ride to the top of the mountain which we had to take. This gives breathtaking views of the area and some close up views of the Generals. Also on the grounds is an Antebellum Plantation that was a delightfull tour. We spent Wednesday and Thursday nights at the RV park within the state park. During our stay something in the air did not set well with my allergies and I have been sniffing, sneezing, coughing and had my eyes watering for the past three days. Today seems to be better since we have moved on to another area.

We are here to visit with one of my best friends from high school and her husband, Diane & Russ Abolt. We are in a RV park on the west side of the city. Since Di & Russ had a previous commitment for tonight we used the time to get the coach set up and clean the "love bugs" off the windshield and front end. (This is an endless job that has to be done each time we stop after a day of travel.) We have not been able to get in contact with Di since we have no cellular telephone reception out here. (We have AT&T and apparently on Verizon works in the area we are staying.) We also do not have internet connection at the coach. To get on the parks WiFi I am sitting in the car outside the park office since that is as far as their signal will reach. We will be in Savannah through next Wednesday before starting north and the Monaco rallies next month.
