[quote name='Moalboaldiver' post='14675' date='Apr 30 2009, 10:50 AM']Hey folks,
Just got home from PA for a two week visit with friends there. I figured first thing I would do was, log on here, to get the latest news. Looks like I haven't missed much of anything, thats a good thing, and looks like the temps are almost to where I like to see them, before I head on the 2 hour trip to GI...
New for us this year, my wife and I purchased an older RV, but it's in mint condition and runs great It's a GMC Leisure Craft, fully self contained and sleeps 6 with no problems. It's not much wider than lets say a Dodge 3500 wide body truck. It's roughly 16 ft long and really handles like driving a big van or small box truck. My question is this, do you think the police would chase me out of the parking strip, by the sea wall just before getting on the bridge?....Would the hotel let me park there for a fee? Is there parking nearby for such a vehical?...Any and all info would be very helpfull. We really ( Me,Wife,and Son) want to visit with the RV. This would not only be nice for a quick cat nap, but we could fire up the stove an make some on the spot freash squid, to chow down on. Looking for all suggestions and input.[/quote]
My suggestion to be abolutly sure you wont be harassed I would say the walmart on connel highway like 3 or 4 minutes from the causeway. they welcome rvers in there parking lot over night. if you are early in the year you might be able to get away with parking on the street if you take a left at the stop sign before the bridge. also early in the season around that corner is some public parking that dosent get full till weekends or around memorial day. you might be able to get away with parking there. I would stay away from the causeway turnout or the island as there is no real public parking on the island and the causeway turnout has 2 hour maximum signs up after a few hours or a day or two you might attract the cops.
best of luck though enjoy your squidding
