    There's chaos and confusion at TTO, but it's well worth it. And next time we are in the area, we need to stay at Lake Lousia State Park campground. Leave a comment and tell us what you think.

    Horse back riding is a lot of fun ...haven't done it for years, but would do it in heart beat.
    Thanks for sharing state park, I conquer that it is a very nice spot to spend a little time.

    I've watched many RV UA-cam videos and don't see the fascination with the parks that are glorified parking lots tto, margaritaville and a few other places are all too close together, packed in like sardines, your neighbors can probably hear everything you do.Lake Louisa, Ft.Desoto is more like it. The video you made where the guy was inches from your rig says it all.

    STINK BUGS!!!! They were the bane of our existence for EIGHT months. We picked them up in a state park in Tennessee in October of 2022 and we were still finding them - like I said - for 8 months. At first I tried just putting them back outside but I figured they were finding their way back in. I also collected them in a bottle for awhile too. Eventually I just would just capture them in the 1-ply toilet paper and send them to the black tank. ~ Susan (from Destination Changing)

We would want to do it around 2nd weekend in October but we all would want to decide and book soon ut gets booked quick and early. I think you would love it!! Of course obvious places the coast.

    I'm not picking on you guys in particular, Idk you but what is the difference between walking out of your own house and enjoying the outside and walking out of your rv in an rv park, where you are parked closer to other rv's than your home is to other homes? What is the fking point in that? It used to be the destination. Not anymore. Now the sheep all flock to these same areas just to stay in a tiny rv and do exactly what they'd do in their house.
    Also, it seems rv's now come standard with a you tube channel. I think I'd decline mine.
