Tuesday, July 29, 2014 – Travel Day to Emigrant Springs State Park, OR

Got up at the break of dawn again, and this time, because we didn’t have to break much down, or to clean out stalls, we were out before 7:00. Stopped for breakfast at a Burger King on the way out, then headed for our next stop in Oregon. Another uneventful trip, thank goodness, although the campground at Emigrant Springs had some challenges. The loop is so narrow that the turn on the east end doesn’t allow for a very comfortable turn with a large rig, and I had to go back out into the day parking area and come in again going in the opposite direction than the road allowed in order to be able to back into the site we selected. I thought I read that there was a water spigot at every site, but that turned out not to be true, but fortunately, the site we picked because it was the biggest was also the site next to the water spigot. The corrals were pretty good size, but since there wasn’t anyone else camping nearby, we put a horse in each corral so they’d have room to move around. It didn’t take long to put enough water in the tank for the night, also filling the horse trailer for future use. Two women came by to water their horses after they got back from a ride, but we didn’t talk much. Because we changed time zones, we actually arrived at 11:00 a.m., which seemed like a silly time to stop, but it was all Hubby could handle, so we rested the rest of the day and evening.
