While visiting Pat before leaving Ada, we looked up some campground options and found Eby's Pines in Bristol, IN.
An excellent choice. Thanks, Pat!
It's the off season here (despite 80 degree temps) so the pool isn't open and there aren't many transient campers, but it's a lovely campground.
We have a large pull through site, which is nice while we are moving from place to place because we can pull in without unhooking the car.
No cable TV, but a large number of antenna channels. Is there ever a place where you can't get Andy Griffith?
The wifi is good, but it's a little different here. We paid $5 for 24 hour access to the internet for two devices. We've never stayed somewhere that the wifi was a la cart, but even w/the $5, the price was reasonable. I suppose there are people who don't want the wifi (I suppose they want to spend time outside or with their families...eewww) so they have the option not to pay for it.
Across the street is Eby's Family Fun Center with roller skating and laser tag. I don't think we'll make it over there, but it looks fun.
The two best things are:
1. The water pressure. It's fantastic. Almost too much. Our shower head has several different settings but usually only one or two of them work very well based on the pressure available. Not here, I used all of them and it was great.
2. The name. Eby's. Years ago when I was a head resident at Mount Holyoke (all hail Mary Lyon) there was another HR named EB. Sadly, EB didn't have much of a sense of humor (seriously, how can you survive as a head resident without a sense of humor?), so one day when I said to her "Hey-bee, EB, how-be are-be you-be?" she just stared at me.
However, it still makes me laugh 25+ years later.
