2018-02-01 - 03 At Salt Springs Recreation Area, Salt Springs, FL

We actually arrived at Salt Springs Recreation Area about 5:30pm on Wednesday, 1/31 after stopping in Satsuma, FL for a quick visit with friends Larry & Kris who used to live in Illinois many years ago. The campground here is very nice. It's a federal park with full hook-ups for $19.00 per night with our geezer card. 

On Thursday, we explored the park. Not much here that you can get to by car. We went down to the Springs and checked for manatees, but didn't see anything that looked anything like a manatee. There was a guy snorkeling at the mouth of the spring, but I didn't get a picture of him. I'm sure I'll get some before we leave because it's quite common for people to swim the despite the alligator warning signs! 

On Saturday, Larry and Kris came over with friends Jim and Jeannie who arrived Thursday from Quincy, IL. We had lunch at Bass Champions, a local sportsmen's restaurant. Then we drove down the road a ways to Rodman Recreation Area that is a state run facility with a very nice campground. We'll keep it in mind for next year.

Tomorrow (Super Bowl Sunday), we're driving down to The Villages to attend a Super Bowl party at camping friends Wayne & Carolyn's new house. Dennis & Suzie and Don & Anita will be there that we know of.

More later!
