Exploring

We did a bit of exploring on our walk this morning. At the nearby marina, we found a small laundry, with two washers and two dryers. The campground has one washer and one dryer--and they're outside--so we had figured we'd need to go to town to wash clothes. It was much more convenient to use the marina laundry. We did two loads today and will do more in a couple of days.

Today was a good day for doing laundry. It was overcast and rainy this morning. We wore our raincoats on our walk, but we didn't actually get rained on. The sun came out in the afternoon.

We saw many more deer today. They all seem to be in good condition. They keep their distance from us, which is a good sign that people haven't been feeding them. There are several young ones.

At breakfast, Ken looked out and saw a skunk. It was traveling across the lawn, and was far enough away that we weren't alarmed. Skunks seem to lope rather than walk. We've seen the heron several times hunting along the shoreline near our site. It flew away when I tried to get closer to take a photo, but I did manage to get a couple of decent shots.




We ate dinner at our picnic table. The sun was lower in the sky and it had started to cool off, but it was still very pleasant to sit and watch the fish junping in our little cove.


We've had our loop to ourselves, but today someone moved into the site across the road from us.
