Well, as we had hoped, we managed to sleep in a little later than usual, yay! As small as this camp is, it had a dump, so we took advantage and got rid of all our excess. Still no running water yet, though, I guess there's still some freezing in the forecast! Dottie, our blue tick coonhound puppy, managed to escape at the last minute and refused to come when called, typical. Fortunately, a jogger was going by, and Dottie raced over to her to be petted, and the woman heard me calling for her and grabbed her for me, so that didn't delay us too much. Thank goodness for that jogger, thank you!! We stopped for diesel and breakfast, then hit the highway for an uneventful drive to Lake Lou Yeager. Someone at one of the horse expos and told me about this one. It's run by the city of Litchfield (which always make it tougher to find, as it's not generally listed on state or national sites), and has about a dozen electrified sites, a bathhouse with hot and cold running water, and a shower in each bathroom. I'm sure there's a dump at the main campground just across the road, but not one here in the camp. There are highline posts with a cable already attached, but since I like to give my guy more space, I put up my own highline with a pulley so he could move back and forth. I always like to put water at one end (or in the middle when we have two horses) and hay at the other, to keep him exercised at least a little bit. We had barely just arrived when Dave the camphost came by and took our money, $20 / night, then we settled in for the rest of the evening, crashing a bit from the hectic schedule. Whew! Back to our old selves again!
