/AREA/TOWN/SIGHTS: W. Memphis is a poor town and not safe. Slums. Best to stay on the highways 40 & 55 to get to shopping in W. Memphis.
Memphis is a larger town, with difficult parking, but lots of restaurants and of course, Graceland.
Other info:
Sites 1-38 are mainly long term and under trees.
Sites 40-76 have some shade.
Sites 80-100 are "5th Wheel" sites. These are situated so your back window will have a great view of the Mississippi River. NO TREES AT ALL in this section. Site 100 gave us plenty of grass area for our dogs.

PRODUCT REVIEW:
SCANSNAP s1300i by Fujitsu


This was recommended to me by Meik at FOUR PAWS KINGDOM. I mentioned that I still have 1.5 tubs of photos to scan and it's taking forever.
I'm happy to say that having purchased this, I am FINALLY done with all my scanning!!!!!
This is a great product. It is very compact, only about 12" long by 3.5" wide. It is so much faster than my flatbed scanner. Plus, I can easily pile 8-10 photos, papers, etc and it feeds automatically. I looked at reviews and comparisons. This was rated by far the best of Neat Desk and the Cannon equivalent.
Excellent product! Thank you Meik!

RV LIFE:
Speaking of scanning..some of the things I've scanned...
my baby book

Me, Debbie at 15 mths.

Old boyfriends. Scott is a very understanding husband, but I won't push it by posting any photos.
My disco party days. Great, great times!

Party photos of me in my prime. I sure sowed by wild oats in my 20's and 30's.
Chip & Dale, well, not really, but Chippendales in NYC in 1984, yes! I kept scanning, and scanning...

and damn, there's still more pages and photos to scan and scan and scan.

 It's embarrassing how many photos I took of those gorgeous almost naked guys.

But who's counting...38, yes, 38! Wooo hoo! It was a fun night. Hey, I was single and 28yrs old. I got it out of my system.
Our EDELWEISS motorcylce tour in Europe. Where were you when the OJ verdict came in on 10/3/95? We were in having drinks at the bar in the Hotel Warther Hof in Warth, Austria.

CRAFTS:
Now that my scanning is complete, I REALLY have a lot of free time. So I've been knitting again. I'm still working on GAAA-Great American Aran Afghan. I started this in 2008. It consists of 24 - 12" blocks to be put together into an afghan. I just finished #12, which only took me 2 days! Normally, it's at least a week, or two.I'm now working on #13.

At the bottom right of square is a spider.

BOOK REVIEW:

Chesapeake Blue by Nora Roberts
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A story that gives you that "warm fuzzy" feeling of a close knit family.
It's almost too sweet with that touch of nastiness that really isn't so bad, but family sticks by.
Of course love interest also. Mostly very like able characters.
Not sure if it's really worthy of 5 stars, but it took me away to the land of white picket fences for a while.
