The campground next door

Lots of folks assume we own Lake Rudolph Campground & RV Resort.

We don't.

But we're kin.

Will's younger brother Philip owns and operates Lake Rudolph, which just won a big award.

The National Association of RV Parks & Campgrounds name Lake Rudolph Campground & RV Resort the 2008/09 "National RV Park of the Year."


There's Philip in the middle, holding the award. That's Dave (marketing guy) on the left and Wayne (GM guy) on the right. They're flanked by the association president and chair.

This is also the 50th anniversary of the campground. Philip and Will's dad, Bill, got it all started half a century ago.

Here's a trip down memory lane, starting with a shot no doubt taken from Santa's sleigh:


See Santa waving hello (or good-bye) by the sign?


I love this guy ... who parked right next to the "no parking" sign.


...and my personal favorite (no, that's not Philip and Will):

That last photo? Two cute little buys in sailor suits ... sorry, I don't know any more than that.

I'm sure if anyone recognizes themselves in these old photos, we'll hear from them.

You know how a random picture or song will just pop into your head when you see something? The chorus to "Holiday Road" from the vacation movies popped into mine.Most appropriate, eh? Been enjoying the Holiblog and Tweets of late. Best to you all.

Paula if you can get Holiday Road on CD or downloaded or something there is a site mobile17.com where you make your own ringtones for free. I've used it many many times.

you could check out the site www.lala.com. Not sure if you will find it. Unfortunately the only search method they have available right now is to search by artist. Otherwise, you can find just about any song you can imagine.
