Last Day at Styx River RV

We just lazed around the trailer this morning. It was still windy and overcast for most of the day. Then later this afternoon the sun came out and no more gusts of wind.

Mike called Compass RV Park at St. Augustine and made a reservation for us to stay there tomorrow night. It's 419 miles from here and will make for a long travel day. That doesn't account for the traffic on the highways of people going back home after evacuating for Irma.

Mike also called our tree trimmer Andre and arranged for him to come to the house and clean up the tree debris from the storm. Since we have 5 oak trees there is bound to be a lot of branches and such down on the ground.

Mike called our next door neighbor Bruce and there was no damage to our house or any of our neighbors'. The electricity is off for everyone, but Bruce and Tom across the street have generators so they are OK. However, Bruce can't get his car out of our garage until the electricity comes back on. At least he has his truck to use. Mike told him we would be home on Thursday.

I did take pictures this afternoon of our campsite - better late than never. 






Styx River RV is a membership campground, but they waived the membership requirements for people
who were evacuating so they could camp here. Some people left yesterday and more left today to go back home.






Mike's packed up the grill, our chairs and whatever else we won't need in the morning, so that much is done for tomorrow.
