We found a wonderful campground in Monroe Michigan. Harbortown rv campground and resort. I would have loved to stay there longer. Very clean and well maintained. It had go carts, putt putt golf, batting cages, and a pool. It was very family friendly, which was the only downside … packs of kids running around making noise (I sound like an old fuddy duddy).
We were not sure what we were going to do the next day except get farther down the road. We started to do some research that night and found the Henry Ford Museum was only 30 minutes away … not very far out of our way and it got good reviews on trip advisor I. We had gotten in late that evening and showered and went to bed …so in the morning we did our laundry, took showers and got ready to go. I had to do the unpleasant job of emptying the black and Greg water. So I got the hose out and layer it out. I took the cap off the dump pipe on the RV. Well aparantly the values on both the black and Greg water were open. The contents began spewing out all over the ground. I quickly attached the hose which had not yet been put into the dump hole. So I then had to open the hole in the ground and put the hose in it while the contents were spewing all over. I got it done and miraculously didn’t get that much on me. It was some pretty anxious moments. I got cleaned we finished the laundry and we hit the road.
The Henry Ford Museum was simply Fabulous. See Bunny’s review.
After the museum I wanted to go back to Harbor town and play … but Miss commonsense made note of the fact that we have to keep moving to stay on schedule. Harbourtown was a great stop and reasonably price at $40 … But we hit the road for the next Casino. They kicked us out of the museum at 5 pm. We set our sights for Firekeepers Casino in Battle Creek Michigan. It was only an hour n half drive and 104 miles. We got in and parked in the RV portion of the parking lot. We made the trek across three separate parking lots and found our way into the casino. We talk with the head of security and explained what we were doing and they told us we were parked in the wrong spot and we would have to move the RV to another lot if we were gonna stay the night. It was Saturday night and the place was packed. We hit the bar for some drinks and headed to the nonsmoking section. We played a little slots and decided to call it quits for the night. We moved the RV to the lot they instructed us to stay in …. and called it a night. The next morning I got up and opened the door and there was a sign on the lamp post right in front of the RV “No Camping” …. We made our way over the 3 parking lots to the casino for our morning coffee before we hit the road for the next stop .’… Notre Dame …
