Day #34
Transition day from Goodfield, Il. to Georgetown, KY. traveling down 74 to 75 with a detour due to a minor accident. My couple of hours at the wheel was like déjà vu, construction for 15-20 miles through Indianapolis. The interesting part - only the first 3-4 miles was actually being worked on, the rest was just block off down to one lane!
Illinois to Indiana to Ohio

Whispering Hills RV Park is a big improvement over where we were. The last place looks like it had been one of those parks named after an animal, that in it's prime, it was the best park around - over 300+ sites, huge playground with swings, jumping pillow, tires to climb on, fishing pond, swimming pool, laundry and bathhouse. The pool was still nice with no posted hours; no quiet hours - the golf cart parade with whooping started about 11 p.m. We would not even do our laundry and our shower was a dip in the pool!
Whispering Hills RV Park is closely patrolled. All campers must have an escort to their site. Doug was stopped because he had to circle a second time to park for us to get our slide out. Clean laundry, showers and pool. playground, jumping pillow under a shelter and a fishing pond!
The sad part of the park is that the pool closes at 8:00 p.m. Closing a pool at 8p is just indecent, the best time to swim is when all the kids are at their campsites, the sun is setting, the heat of the day is waning and the heat of the water warms the soul!
Sandwich supper while doing our piled up laundry, then a nice hot shower!
It is sad for our trip to be coming to an end, but OH the JOY and anticipation of being home!
