BEWARE OF CRITTERS
















Some of the RV Parks, and particularly the Thousand Trails Parks, have unique characteristics. This Thousand Trails, situated on the Peace River in central Florida, has the potential for some very unwanted critters. You don't see signs like this at very many RV Parks. On the other hand, there are lots and lots of other critters called squirrels, here at Peace River. So, from Sami's perspective, every venture out of the motor home is an opportunity to chase a squirrel up a tree. It's sometimes a bit problematic however, when the goal of the walk, is for her to take care of a certain business that normally occurs about twice a day. She gets so involved in the chase, or the search for more squirrels, that it sometimes becomes a lost cause, and has to be attempted a little bit later. If we spot the squirrels first, the strategy of changing directions sometimes seems to work. Yesterday being Sunday, I was parked in front of the tube for a good part of the day. I had recorded NHRA qualifying from Saturday, and after viewing that, went to the NASCAR race in Dover. When we traveled from the TT in Hershey, PA, to the TT in Virginia, we drove right past the track in Dover, Delaware. Even though it's hot & humid, today is the day for removing bugs from the front of the motor home. Florida has this little black insect called the love bug, and for some reason, it's incredibly difficult to get off. The last time we tackled this project in Orlando, Patty and I spent a couple of hours getting rid of the darn things.
