After a nice overnight stay in Russelville we started our journey back home. The first leg was back to Tupelo and the Campground at Barnes Crossing. Sorry no photos from this part of the trip. We just drove 5-6 hours a day fro both days to get home.
We started out on Tuesday morning after a nice stay at Ivy's Cove in Russelville. After stopping for some diesel, off we went. Going back along a path we had already done is not as much fun as we have when seeing new things but it was the shortest path to home. Interestingly enough our milage was not as good as the day before. On this stretch of Interstate highway we only averaged 14.7mpg. After fueling we headed another 20 miles down the road to the Campground at Barnes Crossing in Tupelo. We got our spot assignment and surprisingly enough, it was the same exact spot we were in 1 week previous.
After a good nights stay at Barnes Crossing we headed for home. I filled up twice on this last day. First outside of Montgomery where I got 13.4mpg and the second time at the Walmart just North of Dothan, AL and on that tank we got 15.7mpg. The 15.7mpg is a little misleading since this was mostly on US231 at 65mph.
Ok so lets see how well the Fuse did for the whole trip. We traveled a total of 2,034 miles ignoring the Dothan to Tallahassee leg. We did not fuel back up once we got home and Dothan is only 70 miles from the house. We consumed a total of 129.38 gallons of fuel. This works out to 15.72 miles per gallon for the entire trip.
We used very little propane on the trip but we did fill up at the KOA in Harrison. It has been several years since we got propane and the tank showed 1/4 tank. We filled up and it used 5.3 gallons to fill it up.
