Maybe the title for this one should have been “Lack of travel”. Jean and I were discussing our future travel plans yesterday and decided to try extending here in Gulfport since Ft. Sam Houston RV park (our next planned stop) has a strict 30 day limit. Turned out to be a very good decision. Last night I checked out the closure list again on http://militarycampgrounds.us
Ft. Sam was now showing up on the list of closures. I checked the post website to verify and it was confirmed there. I guess they’ve been very busy and reduced their hours since I didn’t get a call cancelling my reservation.
Current Navy policy says no new reservations until May 11 but current campers can extend until May 11 so that’s what we did this morning. Who knows what will happen between now and then? We may be better off heading north in early May but we’ll see what the commercial RV park situation looks like as we get closer. Until then, we’re safe and sound on the Gulf Coast – just bored like many other folks.
