Day 20 - 22 - On the Road in Mississippi

This is middle Mississippi and not many campgrounds to choose from. There are two within a mile of each other. We tried the other one last year and you can read about the "fun" at (http://www.snowbirdrvtrails.com/canton.htm). This year we said, this one has to be better, right? First off, MovieTown RV Park is hard put to take reservations, they prefer a first come, first served approach, and their webpage is a joke with very little information. We like a challenge! So, we pulled in, went to the office, and found it locked, with a big "No Vacancy" sign on the door. Another posted sign nearby read. "Choose any empty site, put your money in the envelope provided and slide it in the mail slot". Living dangerously, we pulled Bertha into the Park and actually found 3 empty sites among the 200+ in the Park. We selected one and hooked everything up. I then placed my money in said envelope, printed out info on the outside, walked back and slid it into the mail slot in the door. I always have my camera with me, and proceeded to take a shot of the entrance sign, when out of the corner of my eye, I saw a young lady step out of a side door, open the office door, grab my envelope and dart back in the first door. I thought I must be in a skit from SNL, or at least on Candid Camera! Interesting place. The sites are all pull-thru gravel pads, with 15-20' grass strips between sites. They also have some very nice rental cabins. If you don't mind a little drama, it is more than satisfactory for an overnight stop. One of these trips we may stay a couple of days to look the town over. They have made 9 movies here, so I am sure it must be very picturesque. There is also a huge Nissan plant that we are told offers tours from time to time.
