If you read the title line, you are saying where is Opelika, don't ask me. I know it is on I-85 about halfway between Montgomery, Alabama and Atlanta. In other words it is in the middle of who knows where. We are staying in a campground run by the city. We were walking around this very old house on the grounds, and I was kidding Melissa that a ghost lived there. Deb read online that the original owner of the house and land may have been stabbed to death in the house then beheaded on the grounds. Oh goody. The park here is almost deserted with only one other RV. It seems like a nice park but it is located a long way from the interstate. Normally we would not venture so far from the interstate for an overnight stay, but in this part of the woods R V parks are few and far between and haunted RV parks are even fewer. This blog is beginning to sound like B grade horror movie plot. We walked around in the park, and the park had a municipal swimming pool that is now overgrown and abandoned. Holly molly this is starting to sound like a slasher movie.
We left New Orleans this morning and drove about 375 miles. We plan to stop in Greenville, SC tomorrow for a dinner meeting with some Christmas display folks. We should be back in Raleighwood on Sunday, YEA. The Puppies want to run in the backyard of their home and they have had enough of riding in RVs-- I agree with them. Traveling can be fun but coming home from a long trip can be fun too.
We stopped in Mobile, Alabama (pronounced mo bee al) today. I throughly enjoyed speaking to people with a Southern accent. What continues to amaze me are the trees and grass. I keep looking for the rock and sand of the desert and can't believe it is gone. But it is gone and cold weather is near. I am looking forward to it.
Yall have a good day and don't let the beheaded ghosts keep you from it.
