Wednesday was moving day for us. We left Two Rivers, Wisconsin and drove back to the Chicago area. This time we are staying closer in to the metro area at an RV park that is part of the Hollywood Casino in Joliet, Illinois. The park is very nice and reasonable but only has sites with water and electric, so staying for an extended period of time means taking the trailer to the dump station to empty your waste tanks. The sites are very nice and they give you a lot of space. The nice thing is that we are 40 miles closer to our daughter and friends.
When we arrived on Wednesday there were only a dozen or so rigs in the park and the entire center section of pull-thrus was empty. That all changed at 2pm on Thursday! We had a Canadian invasion. At the same time, approximately 20 high end class A diesel pushers arrived. All from Quebec. It was fascinating watching them come in. One after another they came down the road and pulled in the next available pull thru spot, then you all heard was the hissing of air as they emptied their air shocks. After they all set up I took a walk around and all their rigs are very high end, nothing under $500,000 and they are huge, all over 40 feet long.
Here is a picture looking up the road from our rig.
Sunday is moving day for our daughter. We will be doing a caravan down to Knoxville.
