Magic is not feeling well today. She has never been like this before. We hope she’s ok. We had coffee and then took a walk around the park and out to the point. We saw Biker Tom and Sally on our walked and caught up on stuff. Now more getting stuff organized. We will be here 3 months and like to get everything nice, and then we can party. Now we are relaxing and doing some reading. We took a walk and headed to Rosie’s Bar next to our park. A few friends, Danny, John, Oramay, Joel and Brenda were there. We had some drinks and played a few slots. We left and walked over by Sam and Jackies. Mike and Katie stopped by. I borrowed a blanket because it was getting cold. Sam and Jackie let us use the Taxi and we went back and changed into warm clothes and we met up at Rosie’s again. We had a fun time and ended up doing a couple shots.

We were out early and at Black Diamond RV. We are having the brakes checked and greased. We walked over and had breakfast at Ihop. Black Diamond was done in about an hour. They were very thorough and we would recommend them. We were on the road by 11am. We have a long day about 450 miles. We made it to Grass Lake Marina and RV Park in Antioch about 6pm. We got set up, had a cocktail, saw a couple friends and had an early evening.

We had an easy travel day today. We were on the road by 9am and travelled from Tiptonville TN to Marion IL, about 160 miles. We got all set up at the Marion rv park. We have a lot of projects to do while were here. First, on our way to Tunica we were in a bad wind rain store for a few miles and lost the cover to one of our ac units and a couple vent caps. We ordered them from Black Diamond RV Store here in Marion and picked them up today and John replaced them. That’s it for today, now a cocktail and a little tv.
