We just arrived in Saugerties, NY at another KOA campground. The past three days we spent at Nelson's Family Campground in East Hampton, CT.
Over the past several winters at Grace Epsicopal Church, in Weslaco, TX, we have had the pleasure of getting to know Nelson Gustine, the owner of Nelson's Family Campground. Nelson had given us a brochure on the campground and we tried to stay there last fall, but they were closed for the season. We called several weeks ago and made reservations for last weekend. When we got to the campground, the office people told us that we staying there for free! Thanks, Nelson! We spent a lot of time with Nelson; went to a benefit spagetti dinner for Nelson's granddaughter''s soccer team, to Christ Episcopal Church on Sunday, and to breakfast afterwards, and to coffee on Monday before we left.
The campground is huge; 300 sites and many are seasonal sites. There are many ammenities; it's a beautiful place!
We also met another couple from East Hampton; Floy and Gail Hodge, friends of Nelson's. We found we had many things in common. They have a home is Flordia, but travel to the RGV each March. They used to have a place in the Valley (South Texas).
