August 8, 2018 - First time out!!!
The park is not very busy at all, perhaps at twenty percent of its capacity. I had reserved 158. The motorhome looks downright silly, taking so little of both the width and length of the space.
It was a hot day, with temperatures in the 90s and a threat of
rain. Had a bit of rain on the drive up. It was
enough to wash the dust off. Not much to setting up but
the heat soak surprised me. When it is warm out the box
gets toasty until the muffler, engine and drivetrain cool off.
We logged 2.62 miles but you'd of think they walked ten miles.

We were up and walked the entire campground, a distance of six miles. AND ... ready? Odo caught himself a rabbit. He determined that if he throws himself into each and every area of shrubs, he'd eventually throw himself right into a rabbit. He was right! Preferring releasing the rabbit unharmed to Dad starangulating him, he let the rabbit go unharmed. Also below is my wood transport device version 1.
A visit from a Cooper's Hawk who was looking to deprive a nest of some babies:
A VERY green tree!
Later we walked the Inland Lake Trail, a distance of 2.4 miles.
If you look above Toodles, you will see a Blue Heron who
really hoped that Toodles would not notice him.
Tried out the shower and believe it or not, taking a full shower in a Class B, a small Class B at that, is not only possible, but easy. And this is how Toodles is often found napping:
