| We woke to
light rain so I requested a late checkout in hopes of clearing. It
worked for a little while but unfortunately the rain moved the same
direction we were heading and guess who was moving faster. You guessed
it. As usual when I asked Haley if she wanted to run for shelter and
move farther tomorrow or push through she made the choice to tough
it out. Around 8 when we arrived at Perry Sound we went to the Travel
lodge to try and get a room. The guy at the front desk made a comment
that we looked all wet followed by the comment that if we did not
have reservations we were not going to be happy. He insisted he had
no room and that he had been booking overflow guests in the other
resorts in town all day. I said we would not find a room in town so
he booked us at his sister property which was about 45 minutes further
down the road in the town of Berry. As we pulled out I decided to
call the local KOA in case they had a space. They were full as well
but suggested some places we could try. The second stop landed us
a room. Not only did the guy from the Travel Lodge mislead us on rooms
but the next day I discovered the town he wanted to send us to was
more like a hour and a half not 45 minutes. |
