Aug 16 – FL

Tuesday, August 23rd, 2005

Day 15 – Today was not very eventful. We took the car to get it oiled and lubed, so it can feel refreshed and keep us going along the blacktop roads. After that we just trucked it up the highways towards Tampa, Fl – staying at Little Manatee State Park, this campground went on our favorites list. It was a very clean park with one of the cleanest restrooms I’ve seen. Everything was well taken care of with lots of thought put into keeping the grounds and facilities up and running. It also had a great community feel and offered canoe rentals and had accommodations and trails for horses.

There was, of course, another thunderstorm that night – I am going to miss the storms when they are gone.


There were signs all over this area saying watch out for golf carts, it was just north of our the campgrounds. It was kind of funny.


Waffle House is a great small semi-fast food place that seems more popular than McDonalds out here.
