July 25 - Urban campground


Rich and I woke up before the boys, so we decided to sneak out and investigate the lake. We were surprised at the development. It was peaceful so early in the morning but we wondered what it would be like by noon. We were thankful that the campsites were quite far from the waters edge. The water was warm and we looked forward to a swim later in the day. After breakfast I started prepping blog entries. I was way behind and knew it would take most the morning. Mike made some friends and soon they were each walking a dog around the campground. It reminded me of the pied piper.(pic) Rich and I had to get to Everitt to sign some bank papers so we took the opportunity to do laundry and grocery shopping. On the way back to the campground we stopped at the local chamber of commerce to download blog entries and make a booking for the Boeing factory tour. Upon venturing down to the lake for a swim, we passed a wedding party playing music that the whole campground could hear. On the waters edge there were people everywhere, dogs barking, radios blaring and the restrooms were a sight to behold - how sad. We enjoyed a great steak for dinner and were amazed at how peacful the campground got after dark.
