In Alabama - April & May, 2006


We spent all of April and the early part of May in Alabama visiting friends and relatives. Most of the time we were parked at our friends' house in White Plains. The picture at the top left shows one of the most exciting afternoons that month. The hail in that storm was a little bigger than golf ball size. The sound of those things hitting the top of the RV roof was scary. Fortunately we had little damage. The awnings over our slide outs ended up with some holes, but nothing too bad.
The other two pictures were taken at Coleman Lake campground in the Talledega National Forest. The sites are large and shady; the electric service is 50 amp so you can run air conditioning easily (of course, in Alabama that is almost a necessity!); and the bath houses are almost luxurious.
Our friends joined us for the weekend - they have a trailer and really love to camp also. We'll look forward to seeing them in the fall and camping at Coleman again.
