We traveled 77 miles today. A short driving day. We needed the rest after all the packing we did... so the short travel was much appreciated.
The lady that checked us in remembered us from last year. So nice to be remembered :-) She is looking forward to retirement in two years. We camped in site # 1. We camped in this site last year.... a nice site with full hookups.
We had to wait a bit before hooking the water up. There was a water leak within the park system, but within a couple of hours we had water. We have plenty of hand wipes, so no problem for clean hands for dinner.
Dinner was roast pork sandwichs, baked beans and homemade tater salad.
The park has an abundance of birds. Mockingbirds, Canada Geese, Bluebirds, Killdeer, House
Finches, Woodpeckers, Great Egrets, Spotted Sandpipers,Great-Crested Flycatchers and many more species. If we had thought to bring the camera into the trailer we could have gotten a good picture of the flycatcher. The birds were camera shy, but we enjoyed seeing and hearing them.
The park has great habitat for all these birds. There are pine, sweet gum, and tulip poplar trees to name just a few.
We went for a walk in the afternoon and took a few pictures along the way. All the pictures were taken from a great distance from the subject matter:
A Spotted Sandpiper... a new bird for us.
Just a pretty scene of a Great Egret.
A squirrel that looked to be in deep thought.
The rest of the day was much needed rest.
