Still at the campground in the RV. There is not a whole lot to do here, and hence, I do not have much to report. One fun thing we did was drive up to McCloud Falls for a short hike with the dogs. There are several falls to hike in the area, but this was one of the few that allowed dogs on the trails. I try to take them along when possible, so this park was our choice of the day. Definitely worth the hour drive. The hike was easy enough, (OK, we drove most of it,) and the falls were really nice. Only downside? Well, despite reading up extensively about the place before going, I completely forgot my swim suit. It was a hot day and I am sure a dip in the pools under the falls would have been great. Yeah, we could go back easy enough, but we’ve got other sights to see so I doubt we do. I also took the Jeep on some fun trails with the dogs. There are trails criss crossing all over the place behind the campground. I kind of like to know where I’m going before heading out, but I finally decided I wasn’t going to figure it out unless I just took off. I am typing this from back at the RV, so I guess I got back OK. We didn’t get too crazy; I sort of depend on my Jeep for transportation so I didn’t want to tear something up. We bumped along the path for 45 minutes or so, and if things got too sketchy, we turned around and went a different way.
Labor Day Weekend was flat out crazy at the campground. Wow, it was packed. I am pretty sure every spot was taken, and there were some huge groups. Huge groups equal huge noise. Geez, so much for my nice peaceful campsite. I tried counting all the little kids running around like rabid animals, but stopped when I got to 1,758,453. They were moving too quickly for an accurate census. All good, everybody got up and scattered this morning, and all is peaceful again. Hopefully they all had fun, even if it was at the expense of my sanity. (Uh oh, I hope the little gremlins didn’t eat all the ice cream, I better go check…)
