Hats off to Alabama State Parks

We were running from the central Florida area .in advance of Hurricane Irma, and every where we went it seemed to follow us. We finally ended up in western Alabama at Lake Loreen State
Park after being unable to find a spot anywhere else. My hat is off to them for welcoming us with open arms in spite of the fact that this park fills up with rv'ers coming for University of Alabama football games. They gave us a premium site for a week free, and this is a beautiful park. While here, our rv batteries died and needed to be replaced before we could retract our landing gear and slides. Dixie Battery understood our predicament and sold us 4 new Trojans at cost.
I never been in a place with nicer, friendly, and more helpful people. Thank You Alabama

  • Hats off to the city of Dothan,Al The city of Dothan, Al. set up spaces at the National Peanut Festival Fairgrounds just south of Dothan with hookups at no cost to RV's fleeing Hurrican Irma. The city incurred all cost for these spaces. Thank you to the good people of Alabama.
