  • Quiet Morning to Plan Our Days

    August 29, 2020 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F

    My concerns about the kids running about turned out to be for naught. Everything — including the boom boom of a loud bass, went quiet at the appointed time of 10:30p. Two thumbs up.

    It was 51F when we woke up this morning after a restful night of sleep. Breakfast indoors. Now, at 9:00a, it has warmed up nicely to 58F. Probably feels warmer in the sun, but we have plenty of shade where our site backs up to the trees ... no worries in that regard.

    Time to make use of our bug shelter ... a leftover from our full-timing days in the Phaeton. It’s seen better days so we’ll probably replace it next year ... with a smaller shade shelter that Mui won’t mind putting up even for short campground stays.

    After yesterday afternoon’s short but fairly stressful drive on narrow, curvy roads with some impressive hairpin turns, we’re taking it easy before we set off to do some sightseeing. A relaxing morning is perfect for planning out our stay here in the Black Hills.
