The Two RV Gypsies: Full-Time RVers
and family at Mud Island in Memphis, Tennessee
July 28, 2018

FYI: Visitors should view Mud Island 2014 before continuing on this page because it gives a much better overview of Mud Island. Each visit focused on a different aspect of Mud Island. There will be a link there to bring you back here. Both sections are quite different from each other. And on each visit, the two RV Gypsies were with different family members.

The two RV Gypsies had to park in a different parking lot than they did in 2014, because that parking lot was no longer open. This time they had to pay to park. And then they had to walk over a long crossover bridge that was not there before.

At the end of the bridge, Seth and Gabby Duquette walked the crooked walk on a "Mississippi River" yellow line.

Although the two RV Gypsies have been here before, Lee Duquette's nephew Lou Duquette, his wife Gabby and son Seth were here for their first time.

Since the two RV Gypsies took lots of photos in 2014 of the Mississippi River's layout, they did not want to duplicate too many this time, so they took a few signs, and mostly pictures of Lou, Gabby, and Seth Duquette.

Leaving Mud Island, the two RV Gypsies got a view of the crossover bridge and Bass Pro Shop.

Below: From the crossover bridge, Lee Duquette saw a red sign quite a distance down the street and thought it was a Santa Claus hat, but since that would be strange at this time of year, Karen Duquette took a picture and zoomed in on it. It turned out to be a Fire Station sign and a fire dog.

Below: Gabby Duquette has a Mud Island Coke bottle. Karen Duquette also has a very old coke bottle, but hers does not say Mud Island on the label.
