Slang To lose one's inhibitions; enjoy oneself wholeheartedly: Let's just get down and enjoy the party.
Or, we are getting down the road, and now we will be getting down (off the road) for a few nights. After today's drive, we are in Iowa farm country, visiting my brother-in-law, John.
We left the casino RV park at our proposed time, 10:00. Some Interstate, some back roads, and through the Loess Hills area in Iowa. Through the farm lands...
Rufus sat on my lap most of the day...
A bit of Interstate in South Dakota and Iowa...
A stop at a Rest Area, where Rufus got in a morning walk (yes, he walked this morning at the RV park, where it was 41º)...
The roads got significantly less civilized once we left the Interstate...
Broadleaf trees and rolling hills...
Mid afternoon, we rolled into the county park, after taking a tour of the town thanks to 3 different GPSes... none of which could find the park. Going from memory (we were hear 5 years ago with the motorhome), we managed to find our way. And, got settled in...
We went to John's house to visit for a while before going out for supper. Then back to his house for discussions of world events, politicians, flying (something John and I shared), and some tech stuff. Yes, old people discuss tech stuff.
Back to the motorhome, where Rufus got in another long walk before we closed things up for the evening. Things are different in a county park - it is more about "the camping experience" than RVing. We are in a site with water and electric, no sewer. Some of the sites don't have either. There is a fire ring at every site, and from the smokey smell in the air, they like to use 'em. (Fires aren't allowed at Hart Ranch, which is typical for an RV resort compared to a campground.) We have some over-the-air TV and a decent Verizon data signal. It's as close to roughing it as we get. ;-)
