Streetlights are on; Time to head home

 Location: Poverty Point State Park; Delhi, Louisiana (about 40 miles into Louisiana)

This trip ends tomorrow when I get back to my home-base at The Heart of Haynesville RV Park near Mansfield, Louisiana. I left on this trip on March 24, 2025, and headed south to the Gulf of America near Lake Charles, Louisiana. We then turned east and followed the Gulf coast to the Pensacola, Florida area before turning north to the Ohio River valley near Louisville, Kentucky. It was time to cross the Appalachian Mountains through the Cumberland Gap before arriving at the Atlantic Ocean in northeast North Carolina. We turned south and following the Atlantic coast down to Charleston, South Carolina before finally turning west towards Louisiana.

The raw numbers are 99 days,10 states, 28 campgrounds (18-COE/Federal,,,, 7-State Parks,,,, 3-County/City). about 3600 miles of towing and $1,250.00 of fuel. The average cost for the campgrounds worked out to be about $18.00 per night.  I'm really happy I didn't have to stay in any privately owned campgrounds. The COE's are still my favorite by a long shot. 

This is the map showing the stops along the way. 

My campsite here at Poverty Point State Park. Just a 2 day layover without any exploration.

I thought I would be able to re-cap the trip in pictures, but I can't. There just isn't enough room in a blog post to do that. Just know that there was a lot of different scenery, weather, topography and great people along the way. 

Tomorrow is moving day, and I'll probably pull out of here early since my home-base campground doesn't have a check-in time. Once I get there, I'll cruise through the campground, find an empty site, set up camp and Venmo the owner the month's rent of $425.00. I'll be there for one month to see all of my doctors, go with my x-wife to a few of her doctor visits, see the kids/grandkids and do some maintenance work on Freedom and Liberty. I'll be back on the road on August 1st when I'll be headed to the big Forest River RV Rally in Goshen, Indiana. 

Ya'll take care of each other. Maybe I'll Cya down the road.
