Stony Ridge KOA, Perrysburg, OH
On Thursday, April 4th we woke up after 7. Not surprising after our late night or early morning. 😁We felt gratitude this morning, blessed that we were safe and thankful for the prayers.

| This was last night |
Because yesterday was such a long day, we were able to take it slow this morning. We only have a 2 hour drive today and it isn't an early check in at our next park. It is a sunny morning and 54F/11C.
 |
| Good morning! what a lovely change! This is a nice Walmart to stay at, there were only 3 of us and no semis. |
We had our breakfast and Bill walked out to check out our departure lanes. Walmarts can be tricky to get in and out of. This one was easy and after I finished posting yesterday's blog, we pulled out. I knew some friends, not on Facebook where Bill posted an update, would be concerned. It was a few minutes before 9.
 |
| Lots of water laying in the fields and ditches were full. |
We got back on I-69E to I-469 taking us to US24E. Now this is a nice highway! I didn't bother giving Gibbs his pills or putting his thunder coat on and he settled down pretty well, early. Still a tongue hanging out but happy. 🐶❤️

| Some of our route |
We crossed into Ohio at 10:30 and joined I-475S/US73. Exit 1B into I-75N towards Toledo. Another exit 193 at Perrysburg onto 20E. Because we were a bit early, we stopped at a mall lot to wait.
 |
| We stopped at Hobby Lobby passing 30 minutes until we could check in at noon. |
I popped into Hobby Lobby for a nature call and poke around. I found some paper background sheets for shadow boxes and we headed down to Luckey Rd. Stony Ridge KOA had us booked for 3 nights but plans changed and we canceled one night upon arrival at 12:15.
 |
| Someone is happy for the short day, I think. Oh and new smells again! |
Many sites are water covered because of last nights rains and with more expected tomorrow, we asked for a different spot. The manager and host were very obliging and moved us to a pull-through site and even though there was an additional fee for this spot, we were happy to pay it. It was completely dry and very long. 😊
 |
| Supper was good. I forgot I had squash in the fridge. |
Once set up on Site #603, we proceeded to crash. Well, not exactly. Bill and Gibbs snoozed, noises ensued, and I read my next Stephanie Plum mystery. Then, I tried to snooze myself upstairs but I wasn't as tired as I thought. I did get a nice rest though, with Gibbs stretched out beside me. We watched a movie just for the enjoyment of it, one we've seen before but like. It's called Letters to Juliet and was a cute little love story with Amanda Seyfried.
 |
| A couple of park signs. Love the "Whoa!" but it needs punctuation. 😉 |
For supper, we had fish with fries for Bill and a vegetable for me. Strawberries for dessert and then we loaded the dishwasher. It was very good and then Gibbs and I took a walk around the park. It is a lovely evening with barely any wind. There are a lot of puddles in the whole area but Gibbs managed to avoid them (almost!) like a pro. 💕
 |
| Our site is a nice big one. |
Back home, I finished my blog while watching 9-1-1, Elspeth and Matlock all at their normal times. We reached a pleasant high of 65F/18C.
 |
| It's a nice little KOA park. |
This has been a good day. A wonderful day, with nothing to worry about for the moment. 😁

| Spring in Ohio Good night! |
Thank you for your visit.
