Time is growing shorter... we fell back to standard time. We do gain an hour twice, too, since we are now heading west towards the central time zone. Our first stop in Madison, Florida yields a clean load of laundry and a good night's sleep at a new and very clean RV park. We parked for the night and left the next morning. I had hoped to see more of the gulf coast, but we just spent one night in Fort Walton Beach before moving on to New Orleans. I did schedule more days there, and we had a great time exploring the city and getting an oil change for the truck on the other side of Lake Pontchartrain. It's been a long time since I've been in the Big Easy, and I really loved going back to visit again.
