Moved to Wilder

Here at the ranch they have 2 types of campsites for members to park on. 30 day and 60 day pads. The 60 day pads are hard to get as the full-timers that live here year round like to trade places with other full-times. We don’t mind the 30 day pads because by 30 days I'm ready to move to a new spot anyway.

Since we have our new rig we have found a bit of difficulty in finding spots large enough and finding 50 amps is the most difficult. Lonesome pine campground is all 30/50 amps but Wilder, Hill Country, Foggy, Melody, and Powder Mill only have a limited amount of 50 amps. Powder Mill only has 2 true 50 amps and the camp host is on 1 of them. The other is next to the camp host and our campers would be almost touching side to side. I do not like that!!

We had been riding around and looking at the 50 amp sites and Hill Country had several but we were not due to move until July 26th. Well Tuesday night we decided to go out riding again and thought well since the weekend was coming up it might be best to move before then. The 50 amps in Hill Country were all taken, Powder Mill was out as i don’t enjoying be that close to my neighbor. Melody Lane campsites are so small there is no way we’d even try to take our new rig there. We found 2 nice spots in Wilder and so we agreed the next morning we’d get up and take a 4 wheeler down and save our spot.

Well when we got there can you believe both spots were taken! So I decided to drive by one of the prime spots in Wilder to see if by chance it was open and it was! I had wanted to park on this site all last year and could never get it.

Just my luck so we parked the 4 wheeler and went to hook up the camper and moved to our new spot.
