Thursday May 19th 2016

It was a nice sunny New England Spring day for most of the day. I headed south from New Hampshire when it started to cloud over for the forecast rain showers. So far I’ve stayed ahead of the showers. It hasn’t rained here but the evening TV weather reported strong showers where I came from.

Walking around the campground this evening it occurred to me that the kids and dogs have it pretty good. There is a big play area for the kids complete with swings, climbing ladders and slides. Off to the side is an inflated bounce pad; sort of a trampoline on steroids. Even mid week when most of the area kids are still in school it was getting used by a few of the traveling kids.

The dogs get there own fenced in play area. It has hurdles, tunnels and other enrichment items. Unfortunately, I don’t think it gets a lot of use. There are lots of dogs getting walked around the campground, but I haven’t seen any at play in the dog run area.

The play areas are a couple of the amenities that makes this a resort campground. They aren’t things that I want, but I have to pay for them in the nightly rate. Some of the resort amenities I take advantage of are the cable TV and the Wifi internet access. Neither of these are of great quality, but they provide a service.

Tomorrow is supposed to be another good day. I plan to get an early start.
