Today started out just as cold as the last couple of days, but the thermometers say it warmed up a little more. The high temperature was in the low to mid seventies. For some reason it felt colder than yesterdays mid sixties to me. Must be confused expectations or something.

I was a little more active today than yesterday. In addition to my daily walks around the campground and surrounding area, I accomplished a few domestic chores. The campground laundry rooms were functional again allowing me to create some clean clothes. I should have washed some bedding and towels, but they will have to wait for another time. Inside my RV home, I got a little more complex cooking accomplished. I roasted a piece of pork loin for dinner today and subsequent meals. It makes good leftovers and sandwich meat going forward for a few days.

The campground seems to be full tonight. This must be the day that was causing my initial attempts to reserve my stay to be indicated as full. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights all had several empty sites. The fact that I got a cancellation has always been clear. I’m not complaining. I got lucky. Trying to figure out booking patterns and campground policies is a fun mystery for me to try and follow.

I am moving on tomorrow. It is only a short twenty five to thirty mile drive. My next stop will be longer and back in my two week state park stay mode. The issue is the inconsistent checkout times. I need to be out of here by 11AM, but my destination has a checkout at 1PM. It is very possible that I will arrive before my site is empty. Often I will kill time along the way in a rest area or some place similar. For this journey, I don’t know of a good stopping place.
