Got up with the alarm at 7:30, made coffee and proceeded to finish packing up and departing. We ran back to the regular campground to dump, then hit the road for an "all back road" route up to Crawfordsville. With a quick stop for breakfast and another for shopping, we arrived at the park around 3:00, where a young man checked us in with no problem. Last time we were here, we only stayed overnight, this time the plan is to ride, every one of the 14 miles of trails. Despite a weather forecast that assured me of NO chance of rain today, we had a few stray sprinkles just before we arrived, then just as we were finishing setting up, it began to rain quite a bit more, so I had to run out and put the tarp on the hay. They offer stalls here now, for an extra charge, but we decided to put the horses on the highline again. They're building another 10-stall barn on the other side of the campground as well, so I guess they've learned how to cater to the equestrian community. In fact, we parked in the same site we did last time we were here, and it was perfect for getting a good satellite dish signal, and of course, since it's only a few miles off I-20, the cell phone signal is great here, too. Looking forward to doing some riding here, hoping Hubby's shoulder is up to a quick ride tomorrow. Meanwhile, with the rain, cold breeze and low temps tonight, we elected to put the rain sheets on the horses, since they no longer have any winter coat left, and they've been in such warm temps until now! Settled in for the evening, same living room, different back yard! Gotta love it!
