Becky and I went camping last weekend at DeGray Lake. We spent Saturday and Sunday nights. We came back Monday afternoon, taking the long way home and we stopped to see some sights along the way. Saturday night there were few camping spaces available at the state park. The space we got was not level. It had an odd pitch and as we sat around the fire our chairs were at an odd angle. It was even worse in the tent. Sunday morning we had slid off the bottom right corner of the air mattress. Our neighbors played rap music well into the night and there was a large group of campers who partied late into Saturday night.
Sunday when I walked to the bath house, I knew Becky would propose that we go home a day early. I had the thought that since we were staying Sunday night that a better camp sight may open up. I was right, she did mention that we could just go home. But she also suggested we check to see if any better sights opened up. The first sight was in the dense woods. The new sight was right on the lake. It was perfect. These are some pictures of the site. We had a lot of fun that night. I want a tent we can stand up in without stooping and have room to move. The air mattress was not comfortable, either.
I started a new job and that is why I haven't had the time to post. I am the captain of the Argenta Downtown Clean and Green team. I have been reworking ornamental plant beds up and down Main street. I've been thinking how gardening is like governance. I'm working on a post about that. Coming Soon!
