Escapees Hospitality

December 30, 2009
Wauchula, FL


After we wrapped up in Port Charlotte, we headed inland for an hour or so, and made our way to the Escapees park in Wauchula, the "SKP Resort" ("SKP" is the way we abbreviate "Escapee"). We were able to grab one of the last open spots for a five-day stay. Escapee parks don't accept reservations; it's first come-first parked. This is a nice end spot, with an easy angle for the back-in and full hookups for $14/day plus electricity (shouldn't be too much since we need no air conditioning, but we did run the heat pumps to take the chill off this morning). We'll chill here for a few days, making a side trip to visit friends who live in Brandon, just outside Tampa, on New Year's Eve.

It's been an interesting trip so far. Even though Mom passed away in March, the process of placing the ashes has a finality to it that brings a lot of emotions to the surface, and provides a sense of closure.
