Victoria...Victoria

Pulled into Dad's RV Park and was greeted by several of the 'locals' who were all very helpful in showing us around. The park owner escorted us to our spacious pull-thru with full hookup including cable, which was a nice touch. A former Michigander from Chelsea who retired from Dana Corp., and also owned a farm. Several years ago he had a chance to buy this park so he sold the farm to get it. Several more folks stopped by and said hello as we were getting set up. They all said we should be staying for a longer time as this place was much cheaper than our last location. Getting down to specifics they said for less than $400/month you get it all. Electric, cable, the whole nine yards. So okay its cheaper but what's going on around here I ask myself. Is there any thing to do? As it turns out not a lot but then again maybe that's okay too.
I did stop a couple of old gents in the park who, by their ample girth, had not missed many trips down the chow line, where a good seafood place was. They directed us to the Bayside Seafood Restaurant. Boy did they get that right. Some of the best calamari, catfish and shrimp I've had in a long time. Well okay.. maybe a week or two. Anyway a good stop along the trail. We even met a guy in the parking lot who was born and raised in Swartz Creek. A native of Victoria now for the past 30 years, it just goes to show what a shrinking world we live in.

On to to gulf coast in the morning...
