Styx River RV Park - Robertsdale, AL

April 6, our drive from Vidalia, LA to here was beautiful.  Below are a few pictures along the route.
 Lots of tree lined hills.
 We were surprised when this tunnel came up.
This is the entrance to Styx River RV Resort where we are staying.  We got parked and set up just before the rain started.  It rained until about 10:30 am the next morning.  We even had a tornado watch until 3 am this morning.  Our first time while being full-time in the coach.  We decided we could not do anything so we went to sleep.  We woke up and nothing eventful.  Now we can check that off the list.  We decided we don't need to experience that again. :-)

After it quit raining, we drove into town to Piggly Wiggly to pick up a few items.  After putting groceries away and having lunch we walked around this RV Park.

Here is a walkway down to Styx River.  It is really lush and green here.
A view of the river thru the trees.
 The river is swollen from all the rain we got.  We heard on TV that there was about 4" here.  The water was flowing very quickly.  Tic threw a long stick in and we watched it move quickly down river.

  1. Hi you two. So glad you are both on the road and got your blog up and going. We were surprised the first time we went through Mobile and the tunnel came up too. Joe didn't like the surprise. The river at Styx's is very mild when we are there, and not green and lush, so nice to see it in the spring. We were there once with a tornado watch also, but during the day. A worker told us the club house was the safe spot but I couldn't bring my dog. Screw him, if it got bad enough, she was coming too. Luckily, we didn't have anything either. Joe said if you play cards, Jim and Angie don't bluff, so fold if they bet, and tell them to treat you well from Joe from Iowa in the green bus. Joe said to say hi to Bill the manager also. He is a great guy. Wish we could run into you this spring, but sounds like we will probably miss you. I will follow you and see if our paths ever cross.

  2. Hi Dusty and Tic. It is good to hear from you and that you are "on the road" to adventure. That is a beautiful RV park. I don't think it would hurt my feelings to spend several days there. God bless you on the rest of your trip (trips) and hope to see you back in TX one of these days. Joyce
