We chose St Augustine as our second stop in order for us to see another friend, Glenn, who lives on the south side of Jacksonville. Jacksonville is limited on campgrounds, so you either have to stay north of the city or down here in St Augustine. We haven't toured St Augustine in a number of years, so we chose this area to see him on this visit.
Yesterday we drove directly to Camping World even before checking into the campground. Andy is like a kid in a candy store when he goes to Camping World. I just see dollar signs ringing up! But our baby needs some new supplies to keep on rolling and looking good, so it was a must. Our biggest upcoming expense is going to be replacing the awnings. They've gotten dried-out with age. The patio awning is primarily dried-out at the top where it is exposed to sun when rolled up. The newer RV models came out with a vinyl or metal shield that protects that part of the awning now. The slide-out awnings are also cracking - especially where a camper's fly-ball (in 2007) landed on our already-dry awning and caused it to spider web. We just have to figure out where and when to replace all of the awnings.
I'll write more about St Augustine in another post. We're going to spend the day as tourists with Glenn.
