Hickory Creek Campground, Dallas, TX - Nov. 16-17, 2011

Our last stop before getting back to Lawton, OK was spent at another park I'd found at RV Park Reviews, a Corp of Engineers park called, Hickory Creek Campground. Beautiful park with electric and water for $20, along the bank of Lake Lewisville. The site we'd been assigned was very low in front but we made it work ok. Bruce even lit a campfire, which we do not do that often. It was great, and again, a place we'd like to spend more time at in the future when we aren't in such a hurry to get home and see everyone :-)

Lincoln Parish Park, Ruston, Louisiana - Nov 15-16, 2011

From Ocean Pond (just east of Lake City, FL) we took I-10 but when we got to Mobile the news was reporting traffic problems on I-65 northbound, which is how we'd planned on getting to 98. We decided to take CR 31 which turned out to be a very nice 4 lane highway. From 98, we took 49 to I-20, which was pretty good until about 10-15 miles outside of Jackson, MS, bumpy roads there!. We stopped for the night at a park I'd found at RV Park Reviews and what a find that was too!! Beautiful park, full hookups, right on the lake, amid beautiful trees and for only $20. Lincoln Parish Park is a place we want to go back for a longer visit!

Ocean Pond, Osceola National Forest - Nov 13-15, 2011

Hated to leave our friends at Dade Battlefield in Bushnell but missing family and friends in Oklahoma so off we go...We pulled out of Dade Battlefield State Historic Site (one of our best volunteer camp host jobs yet!) and went up to Ocean Pond Campground to spend a couple of days with Harvey and Valerie, who are camp hosting there. Nice campground located near Lake City, Florida. Very nice National Park with sites along the edge of the lake.
