We got up early to get ready to leave, but still didn't make it out of the campground until almost 10:00. Guess we still have to streamline the process a bit. The drive was about five hours long with two bathroom stops. We did a little schoolwork on the way and the kids got some video game time. It was a beautiful drive through the mountains to get to Little Beaver State Park.
It's a very laid-back place. The camp host said to drive around and pick a spot, then find him later to register and pay. It's a nice little park - only a couple of years old. It was mostly empty when we arrived. We've got a great site on top of a hill with 50 amp service plus water and wifi for $28 a night. There are more wooded sites available, but the wifi isn't as strong over there. Our site definitely isn't level though. For you RVers, we had to use four of those little yellow Lego blocks under one side of the camper. And under the legs of our cooking tables.
We walked back to find the camp host and pay, the kids played on the playground, then we headed back to the camper when the rain drizzle didn't let up.
I started reading a book to the kids about time travel back to the time of the Civil War, then grilled up some pork chops and foil potatoes for dinner. Don gave the kids a laptop that he had put together for them from old leftover parts. They were thrilled and played games on that for a while. We only get two over the air channels here (which is two more than I expected,) but the kids were able to watch Wipe Out before bed.
Hope the weather improves for you I'm reading this 9/22 so a few days behind.... Look forward to your next edition..
