Dave was sent to do a job in Cape Canaveral when the space shuttle was scheduled to launch. All of the RV parks were booked up with people coming into the area to watch the launch. We were very lucky to have found any place to stay at all.
I called Tradewinds before we got there to make sure they could fit a 40' 5th wheel and was told they had plenty of room. They had a paved area in front of the office where they rented RV spots. We did not fit into one of these spots but since they did not have them all reserved, we were able to park by taking up 3 spots.
Tradewinds was not really set up very well for an RV park. They did not provide garbage service so Dave had to take the trash to the job site with him. They did not allow the dogs to be walked in the mobile home part of the park so we had to walk outside the park. Fortunately there were wide sidewalks along the street so we could walk without fear of getting hit by a car.
The coolest thing about this park was that I was able to watch the space shuttle launch while sitting on my couch looking out the window. It was a once in a lifetime experience that I will never forget.
