There are only like 10 sites in the park. Sleepy Hollow sits at the bottom of a hill and between mountains. Joe had read from other reviews it was almost impossible to get a satellite signal. I thanked God ahead for the satellite signal he was going to bless us with. Joe spent almost 2 hour moving around our portable satalite dome, trying to get a signal. It was 4:40 and my Monday night favorite show was coming on at 5:00. ( 7:00 shows that we normally watch in Central Time Zone come on at 5:00 in the Pacific Time Zone. It is a real drag). Joe was about to give up, and call it quits. It came to me to have Joe put the dome on top of the Nest. Once Joe spent hour trying to find a signal, and finally found one when he put the old tri-pod on a picnic table. When I asked him to put the dome on the Nest, he agreed to try. I handed it up to him, and it went into search mode. After about 5 minutes, it had not received a signal, so I asked Joe to move it around on the roof. He said it would not make a difference, and it was just going to be more work for him,climbing up the ladder to the roof again, but he would do it if that's what I wanted. I went inside, and he went back up the ladder, At 4:55, the TV came on and I ran outside and told Joe we had a signal. I also told Joe him he should always listen to his wife! God is so Good to us! |
I also stopped here last year for a quick overnight. I am planning on staying again this August. I would only stay for a pit stop but with the Passport America you can't beat the price!!
