Bob and Joyce,

I told you you would like Stephen Foster. Glad you enjoyed it. We had to cancel our stay this month due to the swap of our POD for our new Camplite 21. We're making the swap this week. SFSP for sure next December.

Charlie

Sounds like a fun trip. It's been a long time since I've been that park. It's on our list for next year. As for decorations, always go for it. We were camping on halloween and my wife decorated the pod with pumpkins, ghouls and witches.]]> Sun, 15 Dec 2013 14:30:50 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4264&PID=41247#41247 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=4264&PID=41206#41206 Author: coopercdrkey

We just returned from three nights at Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center State

Park in White Springs, Florida.  Highly recommended!

Our primary motivation was to observe the Holiday Lighting Spectacular which 

runs from December 1 to January 3, (closed Christmas night).  It was as 

advertised.  Six million lights!  Multiple full grown live oak trees encircled from

ground level to branch tips-  gift and crafts village lit up like multiple gingerbread

cottages.  Light ropes cascading from the Carillon Tower which rang out holiday

tunes.  All the grounds decorated for the season.

And the camping facilities?  First rate sites with electric / water-  new, clean

bath houses, friendly rangers-  just the normal excellent Florida State Park

experience with the Stephen Foster Museum and  Carillon  as a bonus.

We brought some holiday decorations for our R-Pod, not knowing whether it

was considered "tacky" or not.  As it turned out, almost all of our camp neighbors

were decked out in Christmas splendor, and our efforts, while tasteful and

appropriate, were far from extravagant by comparison.  I'll try to post a picture

or two if I can get them transferred from my iPad.  (Our loop was the winner,

decoration-wise!!)

All in all a great time, and almost guaranteed to stir up some Christmas spirit

in even the most jaded of Grinches.

Merry Christmas from Florida.
