Hiya Babe!
Didn't rush to get out of bed this morning, but still managed to get on the road by 10:00. The issue with Brookfield is that it's at higher elevation, and there doesn't seem to be any road that doesn't have some serious grade on it, so there were a few places that were a bit nerve-wracking, like coming down a steep hill on the Skaneateles Turnpike and having a stop sign at the bottom. We made it, okay, though, except for at the very end, when Google told me the entrance was beyond where the entrance really was, so I passed it, then had to turn around using a narrow driveway, which took me several tries to back up onto the road without hitting anything. Thank goodness no traffic came by when I was trying to do that! Managed it, though, that's the important thing! Arrived in camp just after noon, walked around to find the best spot, there was only a couple of other campers here, so I had a lot of choices. I ended up in Parking Loop 2, closest to the manure bin, which had the longest site and, I think, will have the most sun for my solar panel, while still having the trailer almost entire in the shade. Perfect spot! I was delighted to discover that the adapter I used at Sugar Hill also fit the spigot here, so I was able to fill up the trailer and horse tub with no problem, yay! Once I got the horses settled in their standing stalls, I did a few more odd chores that needed doing, like changing the filter in my water hose, shaking out the carpet and mopping the floor. I also brought out the grill for the first time in a long time, and put up the screen room, since there were quite a few flies around. I was all settled in by about 3:00 (I wasn't exactly rushing my setup), happy to be in a new place! It wasn't long before another camper came in and parked two spots away from me, so campfire smoke was coming my way by evening. Cooked a white hot on the grill, watched a movie, had a short rain shower somewhat ahead of schedule (it's supposed to rain most of the night) and I'm ready for my shower and bed. Good night, sweetie! Love you!
