Thanksgiving at NAS Pensacola RV Park

 In 4 years of Fulltiming, this is the first time we have been away from family for the holidays. When we checked into NAS Pensacola the folks were so nice and told us they were putting on a Thanksgiving pot luck if we were going to be here. We had originally planned to leave on Wednesday, but decided to stay for the Thanksgiving event and we're glad we did. Most of the park turned out, all with goodies in hand. Sheryl made her world famous Candied Yams and Embrosa Salad, neither of which lasted very long.

 Turkey abounded, with at least 4 different types, smoked, deep fried and baked....yummmmm.

 Sides galore, it was quite the feast and more deserts than you could shake a stick at!!!

 Dinner was at 2:00, at 4:30 there was a Pickin and Grinin Jam. A couple of the RV's brought their guitars, even a professional signer showed up for the first couple of hours, so it was quite the show.

 The local Pro.

Our RV Park duo. A great time was had by one and all. We made some new friends and really enjoyed ourselves, sure helped keep us in the spirit, since we weren't able to be with family. Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving holiday!!! We are headed out tomorrow and will be spending a couple of days at Eglin AFB FamCamp before continuing our journey south. With that being said, we'll see you fine folks back here again before long.

  1. One things for sure, RVers really know how to eat! Glad you had a nice time with your RV "family". :c)

    Interested in how you'll like the Eglin FamCamp, we've stayed at the Destin Army CG, but not the Eglin one (yet).
