Camping Cut Short

We headed out to New River State Park for two nights of camping, but ended up coming home after just one night. First night was pleasant; took a walk on the New River bike-hike-horse trail from the camping area to the Shot Tower with a park "greeter."

I've seen the Tower numerous times before, but this time got a history lesson as well as a look inside.

Then just a night at campsite and short walks to see ducks and people playing in the water - Hard to get a fire going but finally did it!

Then this morning a nice paddle on the New River in a calm area; we rushed back when it started to drizzle.

By the time we got back, it had poured and our campsite was under water. We decided at that point to just grab everything and put it in the Jeep and dry it all out at home. Still working on that!
