After 2 long days of driving and a day of overstimulation, we just relaxed at the campsite for the day. All the weekend people left so there were no campers on either side of us by mid-day. Carson and I went to the Nature center and then I hiked around a bit. I brought out my real camera and got some nature pictures of the native flowers and the prairie dogs. Prairie dogs are the perfect models. They just sit there and bark at you while you take their photos.
Jeff set up his solar panels and charged the camper and all our electronics and then he took a walk over to the dam that keeps the reservoir full of water. He took some pictures above and below the dam as he stood in the spillway. They have gotten more rain here than last year but have no worries about flooding or anything.
Late afternoon, some storms suddenly went through around us, but all we got was some big wind gusts and a few sprinkles. The rangers put up the red flag to signal that all the paddle boarders need to get to shore. Most of them had already done so and the ranger boat picked up a few stragglers that were struggling to paddle against the wind.
It cleared up so we had steak for dinner and enjoyed one last sunset.
When I woke up the last morning at this campsite and came back from the restroom building, a coyote walked right across the empty campsites in front of me hunting for rabbits (which were everywhere). Cool!
Enjoy the photos!
