The "Griswalds" are back from the river. Rained a little Sunday afternoon. Rest of the week was GREAT. Started raining on the way home today. It was a little cool, High 50s-mid 60s (when the sun was out) Burned a Whole lotta wood, good campfire weather. Started out with 4 campers in the whole area. One left tuesday and just 3 of us. As we were leaving they were starting to come in for the weekend. A little ground hog had his burrow in the spot next to us on the river bank. On the 3 mile walking trail through the woods, deer, turkey and MILLIONS of bushy tails. No TV, no phone, no radio ..... nice and relaxing.
edited to add the pic of the groundhog I forgot at first. He would come out and eat and when a car came by he would high tail it back to his hole. He would let you walk up to about 15 feet of him with no problem, go figure. Whistle Pigs are good, only eat grass, flowers, clover, no diggin in the trash. Next to wild rabbit makes for tasty gravy and fried for breakfast. He is sitting in front of his main entrance. His "back door" is just to the left in the pic and at the end of what looks like a pile of sticks (they are just small sapplings that have been whacked down with a week eater) They always have an escape route, sometime more than one.
