Slept pretty good, but the first night is usually the worst so I should be sleeping great for the rest of the trip. The rain passed and I woke up to some really nice, cool weather. Decided to cook breakfast over the fire and it turned out great. Got to use my new grill for fires and it was super!!
Took a long bike ride around the campground and it is so big that I didn't get over to the tent area. I did find some other nice areas and think I am going to have to come back again. The site I had had swimming right at the site, but there is a sign that states you can swim at your own risk......of course I didn't even think out it.
This is one of a couple docks that I found which are really nice. Next to this dock was another swimming area with a little beach.
This is a huge swimming beach with a really nice bath house as well. Of course it was closed for the season, but I was really impressed. Too bad Lakeside doesn't have something like this.....
Found this on my bike ride....Don't know if you can read/see it but the yellow line on the tree is the level the water rose during the 1993 flood. It had to have covered the entire campground.
I left late morning for Fisherman's Cove COE campground which is right on the Mississippi. The trip was uneventful but I did stop at Walmart because I needed to get a cord for my phone....I am so use to just using the wireless charger that I forgot I needed it for connecting to my computer. I also didn't bring enough eggs, so got them as well as some more things that are not good for me.......
Got a site close to the Mississippi but there are a lot of lily pads near the shore
Didn't really have any God sightings on the trip but I still thank him for getting me here safely.
Looks beautiful! Glad the drive has been uneventful for you, love the views of the Mighty Mississippi. That new fire grate looks awesome, definitely big enough.
