Day 104, Friday, January 31, 2025, Falling Waters State Park, Chipley, FL, Day 3 - 0 Miles, 3,570.7 Miles for the Trip
Another warm night - it didn't go below 60°F; time to switch back to only one blanket on the bed. It was warm enough that I switched to shorts for the first time in months. When I went for my walk the campground only had one of two empty tent sites & two empty RV sites, one of which was the Escape 5.0TA that came in yesterday. This campground is used by a number of one nighters. On my way back from doing laundry there were 10 empty RV sites and both tent sites.
I changed the sheets, then went to the Country Clean Laundromat six miles from the campground. Small, but clean. No top loader machines - 6 4 load front loader that were $5.75 per load and 5 6 load machines that I didn't price. The dryers were 4 minutes per quarter. All could be fed using a Speed Queen app, but I used quarters. Comfortable folding chairs, a bathroom & working change machine. 4 large clothes folding tables. Cute signs such as "All unattended children will be sold to the circus".
I made a short stop at Piggy Wiggly on the way back. Sat outside in 72°F cloudy skies for about a half hour before it started to rain. Light rain for half an hour with the promise (at least according to my weather app) for more to come.
Yesterday I finished both Louise Penny's The Grey Wolf and Mike Lawson's House Odds. Last night I started House Reckoning, #9 in Mike Lawson's DeMarco series. The first half of this book would make more sense to be read first since it deals with the death of his father and the start of his career working for the Speaker of the House, although I guess it was necessary to do this to set up the second half of the book. Overall, an enjoyable, well written, and unfortunately, believable series.
Dinner was a Cheese Brat & salad.
Until Next Time -
