Maiden Voyage February 11, 2015 Wednesday

OK, today we arose about 8 AM and  had breakfast.  Then after dressing and making the bed we started staging the cothes, gadgets, foot etc.  in the kitchen to load into the RV.  But wait, I think we need to check the mail for some of Steve's medication and put the mail on hold until we return.
 
Went to the post office--the medication we were expecting hadn't arrived--Mary panicked.  Returned home to check the website to see if it had been sent.  It seemed to have been mailed.  Called VA Pharmacy to confirm.  Checked medication bottle--have enough on hand to stop worrying.

Back to loading the RV, must have made 10 or 15 trips.  Oh well--needs done.  Got it loaded and backed out of the driveway.  Steve put in the tow bar hitch and we attached the pickup.  Then put the Pick-up in neutral for towing, checked the lights, Thumbs up!  Next, we topped off the gas tank and we were on our way at12:40 PM.

We drove to Guthrie and stopped for a Hamburger and fries--Yum!  then we drove through OKC (no wrecks-yea!).  We stopped for a nap about 3:30 PM-Steve was too tired to keep driving.

After the nap and dog walk Steve felt like driving some more--so off we went.  We arrived at Lake Murray State Park at dusk (around 6:30 PM).  We saw two deer as we got close to the campgroud. 
We were just barely able to see them.  We parked in the loop named Elephant Rock Campground.  We pulled in and the north wind almost froze us out when we walked the dogs. Steve hooked up the electric cord and we got back inside to warm up.

Next we had a little supper and sorted through our instruction books that came with the RV.  Then another dog walk.  The stars were lovely on our walk.  Again we were stargazing.  Later the camphost came by and took our money.  Now we are tired--gonna read the kindle and rest so we can get an early start.
