Still stuck!!

Well we are still stuck in Elko GA. 


We could not find anyone locally that had tires for our camper, and we did not want to waste money on something cheap just to get us back to Florida, so we went online and order 4 new Goodyears and are having them shipped here to the campground, only problem is.... they come from California, so they are scheduled to be delivered on Wednesday.  We are hoping that maybe they show up on Tuesday but that's doubtful.
So in the meantime we have made some friends here, there are 27 year round rigs here, so it doesn't take to long to get know the people you see every day.


The camp host, Lisa and Mike, invited us to come join their bonfire Saturday night, so we did, they are very nice people and enjoy the family atmosphere here, they are very dedicated to this park and keeping it friendly and nice.  They live on sight full time in a small house, and we learned how the previous owners almost ran it into the ground, having times when the power was shut off due to them not paying the bills, and how nervous they were when they had new owners, but to their delight the new owners cared very much about keeping the campground open and taken care of, so they were happy!
After the campfire we decided to take some wine and go check out the hot tub as it was very chilly and perfect weather for it
It was really nice!! They have blue lights hung around the pavilion, made for nice ambiance.  We stayed for a few hours.  The next day we decided to take Jemma for a walk outside of the campground, and we happy to find a fairly untraveled dirt road not far from the campground we could walk down

 
Its been pretty boring here, but we have had time to run to Camping World to exchange our surge protector, it was a hummer and driving us nuts, the new one is super quiet, we have gone to the auto parts store to get the tools we need to take the tires off when the new ones come in, our neighbors were nice enough to let us borrow their jack stands so we can do all 4 tires at the same time.  We also have free wifi here so we have been catching up on the shows that we have missed along the way without satellite signal.  We are completely out of firewood so no fires.
Shane saw a 4wheeler driving along the fence line of the campground right behind our spot so today we walked over there to see if it was a road we could walk Jemma down, and it was

 
It actually ended up being an access road to a large hay field, but it was a nice little walk


 
So that's pretty much it, not a whole lot to tell here, just waiting on Wednesday for the tires to get here.
