Relocated

This afternoon we moved to a different lake area, still in Iowa.  Our new site is on the banks of Lake Rathbun which is near the center of the state just above the Missouri state line.  Our site doesn't have a view of the lake but we are however fairly secluded from the rest of the campground.

The site is level enough that we didn't have to unload the camper to get a level floor inside.  Only being here for two nights we probably will not need to leave the area anyway.

Today's drive brought back memories  18 years ago with our first big RV, a 37' 5th wheel trailer, our first time pulling and camping with that unit was to a campground near Des Moines, IA for a square dance.  Our good friends Larche and Marianne stayed with us in the trailer and after the dance we did the tourist things.  We visited the "covered bridges of Madison County", we visited John Wayne's birth place home, and we visited the Amana Colonies.  That was in July of 1999 just before my retirement in October of the same year.  Now we are back in the same general area with a much different camper.

This campsite doesn't have any over-the-air television but we do have both cell phone signal and wifi signal, yea!  With a good wifi signal we can watch any of our home satellite programming with this computer.
