Rest and Relaxation (Shreveport, LA)

We don’t really have much to report on this leg of our trip.  No history lesson today, either! 

We left Chicot County Park at about 8 am on November 8 to drive the 200 miles to Tall Pines RV Park in Shreveport, LA.  Our only plans were to pull the camper to Southern RV for a minor adjustment on the generator.  Our appointment was scheduled for 8am on Wednesday.  We were very lucky at Tall Pines—the site was so level that we didn’t have to unhitch the truck from the trailer so our departure would be easy.  The park is very nice for a city RV park.  There was a bit of highway noise from I-20 but the park itself is very clean and quiet with two dog parks—one for small dogs and another one for large dogs.  Duke and Abby had quite a good time chasing each other around the park.

We did find a Cheddar’s in Shreveport and went there for dinner.  I ordered a glass of wine and waited and waited for it.  Pat talked to the bartender and found out that the bar was out of the wine and the wine cellar was locked.  Apparently only the manager had the key to the storage and he miraculously appeared with my wine after Pat tracked him down.  Then we had a long wait for our food.  My grilled salmon was excellent but Pat said his steak could have been hotter.  I guess we are spoiled by the good service as well as good food at the Clarksville Cheddar’s!!

The rest of our stay was quiet and filled with doing laundry. 

EASY LIVING!!
