Horseshoe Casino & Hotel in Elizabeth, Indiana This room also had a “breathing” fridge that sounded more like the waves of an ocean, but at times it was intense. It was also spacious, had a comfortable bed, a Huge TV, and the softest towels and water. Customer service was excellent, but lots of complaints because of the new owner taking over fighting with the Union.
Our drive to our next location was mostly on I-65 South and it was so bumpy and felt as if we were bucking on a horse for most of the drive.
Sleep Inn in Smyrna, Tennessee was a pleasant surprise, our room was clean, spacious, with a great walk in shower. It’s always a great thing when checking in early, the front desk doesn’t immediately say no, but instead they look if it’s available, which it was, so we were able to get to our huge load of laundry. There was a distinct smell of mold while we slept, not sure where it was coming from since we didn’t see any mold, but it was there and I was uncomfortable.
WHAT A CRAZY DRIVE TODAY…we had truckers everywhere…that’s what is so apparent back east is the congestion, construction EVERYWHERE…missing the open roads out west. In addition to all that, this year we are having major issues with the weight of our trailer we are hauling, it’s not about being able to tow it, it’s being able to stop it and it was scary today coming down a downgrade with the trailers brakes heating up, lighting up, shaking and wheel hopping and not being able to slow us down. Never in all our years of driving our motorhome, trailers, trucks, cars and any sort of vehicle have I ever feared our safety, but today changed all that in an instant. It was a breath of fresh air to finally make it to our event destination.
LaQuinta in Douglasville, Georgia We stayed here last year and this year was even better, our room was HUGE…it was at the end and top floor so the noise was nonexistent. The bed was so comfortable, the shower head was explosive in such a soothing way, the couch was enough to spread out, and they even had a wet bar. Customer service was excellent!
Our event was soggy, all day drizzle and windy, we were setup outdoors but were under somewhat of a cover. Several of our items got drenched from torrential rain leaks and then they canceled the finals so we only worked 16 hours instead of 22. Unfortunately, as we were loading the trailer there was a 20 minute downpour, so the entire trailer contents are drenched.
Now we head to San Antonio with only 3 days to get there and one of those days is my birthday, so we will try to get some me time in as well, will let you all know how well that goes next week.
