We were camped at an Indiana State Park, 2 weeks in March. Even though the weather still dipped down below freezing, it rained, snowed, and everything, we were very surprised at how many people were camping there. At times, it look like the campground was filled about 50%.



We stayed at Fox Fire KOA at Milton, West Virginia on Saturday, April 2 and that campground was packed solid. We'd made reservations a couple weeks ago.

We are now at Mayberry Campground at Mount Airy, North Carolina. On our trip from Indiana to here, we were surprised at how many RVers were on the road. Of course, they were going the opposite direction, South to North, and this is the beginning of Spring Break season too. Maybe a number of these were the Southern snow birds heading back North for the Summer. Still, it was overwhelming the numbers on the road.

Mayberry Campground is a huge campground. Just sense yesterday we've taken several walks around the campground and I'm really in awe again at how full this one is too. This is only April 4, and a Monday, at it looks like it's maybe, 75% filled. There are some sections in the campground layout for pull through's. I've figured it out these are probably designated for the over nighters. There were several in this section when we got out of bed, they are mostly gone now. So, it looks like they keep this section for short term, transient, overnights. Still, it's amazing how full this campground is too.

Fuel prices (diesel) at Flying J's along the interstates, consistently were $5.45 if you were not a trucker. Off the interstates, it could be found for $4.99 or a bit less. At 9.5 mpg towing our fifth wheel, this IS an expensive trip. And we're just starting.

We'll be at Mayberry for a week, then 2 weeks South of Charlotte, N.C.
