rving

sep 23: still tring to find that perfect campsite...south of the border is NOT it! flies, flies and more flies..for two days we have been relegated to inside the camper due to flies outside. we also have them inside so we have a constant vigil to kill them as soon as they enter. leaving early and trying an oceanfront campsite on myrtle beach..they have 1100 campsites..wish us luck!
