Trip to Horseshoe Lake Preserve

I missed my departure schedule by a few minutes this time. After hooking up and getting ready to get underway, noticed that one of the RV tires was low. Took a while to air up the tire with my little DC air pump. Got in enough air to move to the Shell station at the I55 on ramp. Fueled up and aired up there. When up I55 to Springfield and then over to Decatur on I72. From there was on US 36 to Indiana. Road pretty good shape, but couple of low viaducts. Last one was only 13' 4" posted clearance. I got up on the tool box to watch the top while Kay edged through the viaduct. Either the clearance was posted wrong, or the RV isn't as tall as I measured. Stopped at Dixie cafe in Tuscola. Hot beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy. Meal was good except the gravy tasted like it had tomato soup in it. Neither of us had ever had that before. Not one of my favorite gravies. :-(. Checked into the preserve and found a space. Looked at the few 50 amp sites they have here, but were already taken, or no clear southern sky. Found a 30 amp site with great clearance. Corner lot with plenty of space. All the sites here seem to have good space area. Area we are in doesn't have as many trees, so can get the Internet dish up and operating. Lots of lakes here and no fishing license required. May pick up some gear at store and do some fishing. After the stop for lunch, Sam was not happy. Think perhaps he again thought it was time for him to be put back in the RV. Settled down after Kay made him get back inside his small cage. Had some geese fly honking over the RV and that brought reaction from him. A lot of the spaces here are filled already. Probably quite a few here for the Indy Sunday. The speedway is only about 70 miles from here.
We got here an hour later than we thought we were. This part of Indiana is on eastern time right now. Forgot that they do that during the summer. So our LA direcTv stations are on 3 hours late rather than the two before. They did have interesting trash barrels at the Honey Bend as you can see form the photo. Our current location
