We're headed to Geronimo RV in Destin Fl

We worked out a deal on a new Coachmen Spirit 2557RB Friday and are headed to Geronimo RV park for the week starting Monday. Stopping in Birmingham AL this evening to visit an old Navy friend from 28 years ago! Looks like perfect weather in the 70's all week and we aren't in our Gulfstream 17RWD!!! Spoiled and blessed life being able to have a TT with 2 recliners and a large LED tv, large bathroom and walk around queen. We haven't felt the gulf side sand in a long time.

    Wow, 49 degrees this am! This is a small 35 site campground with level concrete pads and a paved, wide interior road. Super clean and nice bathhouse. Concrete pad has a nice picnic table. No fires allowed. Bummer. We ate at The Shack in Ft Walton Beach, highly recommend it. Fantastic shrimp and lobster cake. One outlet mall and another outdoor mall and a Bass Pro Shops here. More Waffle Houses in a 10 mile stretch than anywhere I've been. The Miramar Beach end where we are is much newer and nicer than the western Ft Walton Beach area.
    We got here only to find our brand new Furrion POS 12V frig doesn't cool except for the freezer. Thank goodness we have an outdoor dorm style frig. Forest River has one on order going to our dealer. Apparently these things have a ton of issues. I'm thinking now I should have just bought the other trailer that wasn't missing so many items and had the 2 way frig.

    You probably won't be swimming next week, a cold front is coming thru tonight. The weather guessers say it's going down to the 40's here so it will be colder in Destin. But on the other hand we see tourists in the water when no native would even consider it...heh
