Cross Town Laundry

Meridian, MS

We are staying in an RV park that we didn't plan to be in and also didn't plan to stay so long.  Our plans changed, the place we wanted couldn't fit us in so we came here.  We tried to leave but got stuck in one of their muddy sink holes.  So here we are and I couldn't put off doing the laundry any longer...I was running out of clothes.
So Kirby helped me load up the clothes and we went to the RV Park laundromat.  When we found it, there was a sign on the door stating the machines were broken and to use their second laundry building.  We followed the directions and when we got there, there were only 2 washers that worked.  I had 4 loads to do.  So, on to Plan B.  We returned home, got on the intranet and looked up laundromats in the area.

I made a list of 3 or 4 and we got in the truck and I plugged the first one into the GPS.  Four miles later we were driving in circles looking for this little place.  GPS kept telling us we were there but we still couldn't find it.  Finally, we were pointed the right direction to be able to see it!


It really wasn't too bad.  A little cramped and expensive but the machines worked fine and when I got home and went through my stuff I had 2 more hand towels than I went there with.  I have no idea where they came from.

Open Air!



A new Laundromat today!!  We are at the KOA in Ladson, SC and glad that it is a warm day.  As you can see from the picture, this laundromat is pretty much open air!  There were enough machines but none of the dryers matched and they were pretty old.  It was amazingly uneventful doing my four loads and I was grateful for the folding table - which was covered with yellow pollen!  Our RV is parked just across the road so it was easy to get there and no one to wait on.  In and out in an hour.  Pretty cool!  But did I mention that I spent $14 on those 4 loads of wash?!
