2013 - Mar 25 Travel to Defuniak Springs, FL

We got up at o'dark:30 and showered. We called the ranger station at 7:30 to see if there were any cancellations in the campground that would allow us to stay for a couple of extra days and wait out the snow up home. No such luck! The park was full with the next opening sometime in April.

We broke camp and checked for cancellations one more time on our way out. Still no luck, so we headed west. We stopped by Falling Waters State Park, but they were full. Then we called Florida Caverns State Park and they were full. We got the Good Sam's Trailer Life camping book out and found Sunset King Lake Resort in DeFuniak, FL. We called them and they had a vacancy, so here we are - booked in for three nights!

Hopefully, if we leave here on Thursday, the snow at home will be about gone by Friday evening when we get home. It only got up to 60 here today and tomorrow's high will only be in the 50s with tomorrow night's low getting down to the freezing zone. But it's still better than being home right now.

So, we'll be out exploring the area tomorrow. We'll let you know if we find anything interesting - or not!
