Carp River would be our next stop, another National Forest campground. Our price was beyond reasonable probably $6 after it's over and done with. The site had water and electric so it was a really good deal. Saint Ignatius was the place where we were picking up some new chairs, we had ordered for the RV. They were coming in from a company called Wayfair. We’ve had to learn how to get things shipped to anywhere in the USA. We looked and UPS was the carrier. If you can find a UPS customer service center you can intercept it there. This was a small town. Since there isn’t a hub nearby, they send you to the local hardware store. I had called the hardware store and said that would be okay with us and to stay in touch.


I watched the tracking number and tried to be at the hardware store the day the chairs arrived. They are big boxes so I don't want to be a bother and they appreciated that.

When I got to St Ignatius and found the hardware store I needed to find a big parking lot to be for a bit to drop the rig. I took the truck only over to the hardware store. I spoke to the nice lady and the boxes were sitting right upfront. She was so friendly about it I even told her I so. I was so appreciative I offered to buy something from the hardware store and she said don't worry about it. I got the chairs into the rig we went on to the campground and got settled in.

I assembled the new chairs and when we went into town I took our old decent enough recliners to the habitat store. They had closed so I left them out by receiving. They kind of hate that but they weren’t junk. I was dumping they were just too big for our limited living room. I remember it being just a pretty little place, no-frills, no big deal just a two-hour stop. These places are quite nice as they're usually in a National Forest with all that natural beauty. We went into town for a nice lunch at the Big Boy Restaurant. There aren't many Big Boys that I can remember much anymore with the iconic statue out front. Of course, they're called Shoney's but you don't see the big boy anymore. I had to take a picture of that and then it was about time for us to be moving on.
