Camp Fimfo here we COME

Camp Fimfo Here We COME

Monday April 25, 2022

OK I jumped ahead, BUT
Our host have arrived. Right after us.
Switch It Up. With Todd and Sheila 

He was up first, anxious to get moving. We got all packed up then pulled out just after 9:30. There is rain in the forecast,  we were hoping we would miss it. We drove for over 2 hours stopped at a quick rest area. Then the skies darkened, and the clouds opened up and it rained really heavy for just a few minutes. It stopped and started a few more times as we drove. 
Getting really dark
 
We called Camp Fimfo to see if we can check in earlier then 3. She said sure no problem will charge you a $25 fee for early arrival. OH NO thanks,  Really, We were going to be no more than an hour early. So we saw a sign for Buc-ee's decided that would be our first stop to see one. Plus we were ready for bathroom and one of their great sandwiches for lunch.. And they are pretty great. 
Below he was prepping pork I think it was. They also had brisket, sausage, and turkey.
Jim ate a tortilla wrapped sausage on a stick too. Bottom R
 We walked around for a good hour the place is ginormous. 
This place has EVERYTHING. Had a better housewares section then most department stores.
I love to read all the signs. I take the pic and read them later. Of course he was rushing me.
This whole long case was full of any kind of jerkey you could imagine.
This was a really cool barrel smoker. 
This was the best picture of the camper I can get, it was pouring then we ran back out to the truck. 

The campground is only 20 minutes away,  so we will be back. We arrived and checked in. She took the card I wanted to mail to my mother-in-law,  there was no mail box. And then I asked about the golf cart if we needed a special tag. They rent them here and she said NO we couldn't use our personal golf cart. ANOTHER STRIKE # 2 for Camp Fimfo. 
We got backed into our site, luckily the rain had stopped by now. It cooled off over 20 degrees from when we left oh, I actually needed a coat. I first tryed to squeegee, but it was so dirty it didn't dry well,
then I took a hose and rinsed off the dirt from our dirty drive in the rain.
Later we went for a walk, then had our leftover spaghetti. So happy to finally be here. 
WE MADE it

  1. So a thumbs up for Buckee and a thumbs down for the campground. We have been to Buckees in TX. They recently opened two in Alabama. Neither real close. We still love WaWa.
