Day 89, Thursday, January 16, 2025, Suwannee Music Park & Campground, Live Oak, FL - 224.5 Miles, 3,377.8 Miles for the Trip
I got an early (for me) start leaving at 9:30. a 2 minute wait at the dump station, a short drive through the outskirts of Savannah, then on to I 95 to I 10. All interstate driving today which made the 225 miles go by quickly. I arrived at Suwannee Music Park around 2:00, signed in & followed a golf cart to my site. Site 230 is squeezed in with 230B. It is hard to tell where one ends and the other starts, but there is an Escape 21NE in 230B. One interesting fact - no bathrooms in the River Rod camping area (where site 230 is located). $45.94 per night for a water & electric on sand. Needed 2" correction side to side & 1" rise on the tongue.

I had an "interesting" discovery when I was setting up. Went to unlock the F 150 tailgate & no click & it didn't open. There is a rigid tonneau cover with the releases inside the bed so I couldn't get at anything inside. Tried a few things, then gave up and headed 7 miles to Walt's Ford in Live Oaks. They were very helpful; managed to get the tailgate open, determined that the electric opening module was bad, disconnected it so while I can't lock it, I can open & close the tailgate. The replacement module plus labor will run around $550.00 and should arrive tomorrow.
By the time I got back to the trailer it was time for dinner, and since it was still 62°F out (with a high of 65°F) and since there is a picnic table on a corner of the site, I got out the grill and cooked a Butterball turkey burger. That and a salad was dinner.
Until Tomorrow -
