As is our usual, we didn't drive far before stopping for the night. We were lucky enough to get on of the last two campsites at Ocean Pond Campground in Osceola National Forest. Traffic was light on Easter Sunday so it was a pleasant drive. Once we arrived at the campground, we saw that the west loop was filled. We crossed our fingers, hoping that there would be a site on the east loop. Hip, hip hooray, there were two sites next to each other, close to the pond! Unlike the west loop, there were no electric hook-ups, but that was fine with us as the weather was still cool enough to make it bearable without AC.
As we were eating lunch, we saw another RV drive by to get the last site--it was another Winnebago Forza (just like our Solei), only it was the little sister to ours, a 34 footer. We gave the owners time to set up before introducing ourselves. Turns out it was another couple from the Facebook page we follow! They were there for one night before heading north. We hope to see them out west this summer!
We hiked a bit at Ocean Pond, Florida Trail passes through Osceola National Forest. We also visited Olustee State Park Battlefield. On Monday, it was time to get new tires for our 'toad' so we headed into Lake City for 'toad's' new shoes.
We enjoyed our stay at Ocean Pond, and will stop there again. But it was time to head home and get ready for our cruise and our big summer trip. Once again, the camera was in hiding, so no pictures.
