• Why? Oming…..

    22. Mai in den USA ⋅ 🌬 12 °C

    Things finally slowed down a bit today. We woke up to blue skies and a nice stiff breeze off the lake. We did a short walk along the beach. Very interesting sand dunes as this lake is man made, and only about 70 years old. Lots of low growth, and because the lake is so low, there was a lot of exposed sand to walk on.
    Next activity of the day was something rare for Wyoming and Melissa, we went mountain bike riding. The trails were mostly smooth, but it was a tight single track with some exposed edges. Melissa struggled with this and we turned around. After Melissa was safely at the trail head, Dan went back out on the trails and rode out for about an hour and still didn’t cover 1/3 of the trail system. Melissa came back to the camper, did some research on changing a few of our stays, and went for a walk.
    After Dan got back, we drove into Glendo to get some lunch and some groceries. We decided the Bull Frog Grill was a good choice for lunch, but I think we missed the mark a bit on that one. The town is really small with only one expensive gas station, and one general store that didn’t carry much and was also expensive.
    Driving back to the camper, we took in some of the sites, the marina and the dam. Afternoon consisted of another walk on the beach, reading books in the sun, and watching the campsite go from almost completely empty, to completely full. I felt like a 5 year old boy watching all the big campers and trucks pull in. It is always the same dance watching them pull in… The woman jumps out of the truck and guides the man driving the truck to back the camper into the camp site. It is always interesting to watch the interactions.
    Melissa cooked an amazing dinner, and we ate outside in the sunshine, cleaned up, read a bit more than went inside to play Rumikub as the sun set and it got cold outside.
