This was the second day of driving, but only 6.5 hours. We slept in at the hotel a little bit and go on the road about 10. The roads were a bit busier today since the holiday was over. We spent 4 more hours on I-80. The Dorsch Ford guy called us back and helped troubleshoot the weight restriction warning, but his team couldn’t figure out the solution either. We did discover a workaround by changing the towing option (going from camper to the generic or back), it helped for a little while each time. Once we turned on to I-76, the warning just stopped happening. So bizarre!
We weren’t sure what to expect for our campsite, since there was no water or electrical at the whole campground. It is in Westminster, and is a nature preserve and reservoir called Standley Lake and is in the middle of neighborhoods and malls and big box stores. The campsite is great! Jeff did a great job using Google Maps and the campground map and got us a site that has an amazing view of the reservoir and also of the mountains.
We set up quickly and then I went off to explore. The lake doesn’t allow motor boats or swimming, but does encourage paddle sports. I saw bunnies hopping around and also discovered a prairie dog town. I also found some cactus, and some other wildflowers.
Spencer fell asleep early and Carson is listening to his latest audiobook. Jeff and I watched an incredible sunset over the mountains.
