Homossas FL

When I left Citrus Ridge, I headed to Hudson to have my passenger window checked.  They did a water check and it didn't leak but there was some missing caulk on the roof gutter line.  They caulked what needed to be be done and I was off to Homossas Fl.

I had two free nights at Chassa Oaks RV Resort so pulled in there to a very hearty welcome.  Chassa Oaks is an RV park that sells deeded lots.  They are having a special for the next ten sites sold with a discount of $10,000.  Still expensive at $39,000-$49,000.  There are 39 lots total, a very nice clubhouse and beautiful pool.  The maintenance fee is $81.00 per mo that includes, water, wi-fi, lawn maintenance, garbage removal.  The trees are not mature yet as it's a fairly new area.  It's very close to the Chassahowitzka Wildlife Refuge  which is a great place for kayaking. 

My site 20 at Chassa Oaks


Site I looked at, nice buffer in the back.
 After my two nights, I moved up the road about 10 miles to Rock Crusher Canyon RV Resort.  My friend Nan was here and I got the site between her and other friends, Jeff and Barbie.  Nan had been here three nights, on Passport America, and was getting ready to leave but we had a nice visit.  Jeff, Barbie and I went out to dinner to the Freezer.  If you are ever in this area, the Freezer is the place to go for seafood.  It was an original freezer for the seafood when it was a place for unloading the catch when it came in.  A very unique and very good place to go.

I spent most of the day at the pool and getting some things around Somewhere.  It was a very relaxing day.


Today, Nan came down and picked me up and we traveled to Center Hill, FL to visit Beasley Mfg Co.  Beasley sells sunscreen fabric by the foot and it can be used as awning screens, windshield screens, patio rugs and other uses.  You can get this fabric for $1.00-$2.00 a foot.  Great price and terrific selection.  Nan and I both went ga-ga over the choices.  I got a new lightweight rug, some covers for the upper part of the passenger and driver windows and enough for tire covers.  I'm excited and know what I'll be doing when I get to Jonathan's.  I'll be making new wheel covers.  It was a fun day.

Day tripping...one way ticket please!

Margie and I headed over to the Nature Coast of FL to check out an RV park selling lots.  Well, I was the one checking it out as Margie and Roger already own a lot in Citrus Ridge.  I love the Nature Coast because of the springs and the looks of things over there.  Reminds me of one big State Park.

They wait until you purchase to pour the pad.
Already poured
I liked lot #6.
I had read another blog, Karen and Al, and they mentioned Chassa Oaks RV Resort.  We looked around and talked to the folks and everyone seemed to be very nice.  A bit pricey for an RV lot as the one I really liked was $54,900.  Way too much $$ for me especially since I think it's a little too far north to enjoy the warmth of FL in the winter.  Also I'm still up in the air about what I really want to do.  Not ruling it out but I'll tell you if something came up for sale in Rock Crusher Canyon RV Resort, I'd be there in a heart beat!  I'll be headed to Chassa Oaks to stay two nights on them on my way north to TN.

We met our bloggin' friends, Jeff and Barbie, at Marguerita Grill in Homosassas Springs, FL.  The food was delish and the drinks were fabulous.  Can't you tell I was being greedy here?  Hey, at least I wasn't driving.  Thanks Margie for agreeing to be the driver today.

Afterward we went to Barbie and Jeff's Castle in Rock Crusher Canyon RV Resort and visited with them for a little while.  Good thing 'cause if we had of left right then I would have snoozed all the way back home.  Margie got a ride on the golf cart with Barbie to see the place.  She hadn't been there but she had heard about it through me and others.  Not so sure if she was as impressed with the place as I was.  I'm more rustic than she is.  She likes the concrete and tv programming she gets from the Dish.  There are no bugs at this place and I like that a lot.

Anyway back home we go and it was a great day to visit friends and to check out new places.
