Just a crazy name I came up with.Originally from W.VA. used to back pack some in the mountains, so I thought Mountaindew would be appropriate.Have a great weekend.
 

What part of WV were you from?

We just bought a new Fleetwood Sea Pine (DH, DS-6, DD-3) and used it for the first time at St. Andrews State Park.  We had a great time.  DH and I are used to tent camping but I had a PUP as a child with some great memories so we decided to try it out with our kids.  I am curious as to how your trip to Florida Caverns went because that is one more place I am looking into.  Thanks!

Quote from: mjdfarmAnastasia State Park is great but it is a beach so that is definetly a summer spot.  Great surf fishing.  Camp store and small snack stand on site.

Oleno Sate Park was also very nice.  We had deer walking through our campsites on 2 of the days we were there.  Itchutucknee sp is nearby and during the tubing season they offer transportation back and forth.

Silver River sp is next to silver springs theme park.  Both very nice.  New showers and bathrooms there.

Paines Prarie just outside Gainesville was also nice.  We saw the wild horses and the Buffalo.  Imagine that Buffalo in Florida.  I grew up in N Florida born and raised.  I always heard about them but it was something else to see them.  

These are just a few we have been to.  All the parks were clean and well kept.  Park staff was friendly and helpful.

We are going to Florida Caverns sp in the morning west of Tallahassee.  Ill let you know how that goes.

Recently bought PU from LimeJeeep (Thanks Steve)
We've reserved a site at Fort Desoto  in June. Can't wait. As soon as we get time off work we're going on a practice trip, for a night or two. Maybe up to silver lake east of brooksville area, or somewhere not too far. Do some bike riding, fishing, and just chillout.
