July 28 and 29th - Columbus has one of the biggest malls I’ve ever seen. We need food and to figure out how to stabilize everything we’ve loaded into this beast. We rent a car…Enterprise is a wonderful invention since they bring the car to you…important when you’re not all that comfortable maneuvering through town.
We end up spending the entire day racing from store to store . Find the Weber BBQ grill we’ve been looking for and terrific looking baskets to stow packaged food at Sears. Bed and Bath and the Great Indoors have containers to temporarily ease things from rolling around…still trying to find an attractive and effective way to hold dishes and glasses. Will probably end up designing something that Rick can build for the next trip. Dinner out since we have a car.
Next morning, major shopping excursion at a Kroger’s….great store…very big for a city girl! Stop to pick up some wine and beer…major necessities, return car and head for Terre Haute, IN.
Uneventful drive…the surprise occurs when we need a place to stop for the night. One of Kelly’s friends has been kidding me about KOAs since we bought this thing. I said no way would we be doing that….never say never! It had 4 stars, so how bad could it be? It felt like the Twilight Zone! While there were several very nice RVs there, it was dotted with what looked like permanent residents in wrecks and many dogs! I am no longer trusting this star system. That's why we're starting our own rating system. We closed ourselves in, made a taco salad, put in a DVD and spent a pleasant evening.
