Thursday, July 7 - Another Slow Day

 Temperatures were a little better today, but still to warm for us. We went to Menards this morning to buy a replacement for the new coffee pot we had, that lasted less than 10 brew cycles. We also bought some shelf support clips to replace the ones that failed while being battered on the rough roads in KY & IN.

Doug came over for a visit in the afternoon. He had not seen the coach. He brought a chicken dish for Kathy and ribs for me, our supper. The weather was OK for an AM & PM walk around the campground.

There are 101 sites at the campground. After walking around the campground I think there are at least 30 units that have 300 gallon propane tanks. Many of the units have some potted plants, including tomatoes, around them and one even has a flower garden behind it, next to a forested area. Even living full time in a unit it would take a LONG time to burn 300 gallons of propane. None of the units are "skirted". Living in one during the entire Indy winter would be a real challenge.

After walking the trash to the dumpster I checked out the laundry and bathroom facility. A load of laundry costs $1.85 to wash and the same to dry.

The PO Boxes, and packages, in the photo below seem to indicate that quite a few people stay for extended periods.

The individual toilet and shower facilities were nice.

When I looked out the front window this morning I was a little surprised at the neighbors pet. At least its quiet. He also has a yappy little dog. The dog is real, and noisy.
