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 &#8230;. 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 &#8220;No Camping&#8221; &#8230;. 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 .&#8217;&#8230; Notre Dame &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We found a wonderful campground in Monroe Michigan.\u00a0 Harbortown rv campground and resort.\u00a0 I would have loved to stay there longer.\u00a0 Very clean and well maintained.\u00a0 It had go carts, putt putt golf, batting cages, and a pool.\u00a0 It was very family friendly, which was the only downside &#8230; packs of kids running around making [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/647"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=647"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/647\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":724,"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/647\/revisions\/724"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=647"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=647"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.griffy-sherlock.com\/homepage\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=647"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
