July 22: Hanging at Camp

House cleaning was on the agenda for yesterday. Then we went into Stearns so Larry could get a hair cut. Cost him $7 and a $3 tip. Pretty cheap for a pretty good cut. I viewed the video that came with our beard clippers, so maybe I can do it next time. We drove on into Whitley City for Arby's and groceries (we now have cookies). There was a pretty good rain storm while we were out. We'd left the awning out so we weren't sure what we would come back to. But it's Kentucky - the awning was fine. We sat out under the awning while we got more rain. Totally new experience for us.

We went for a bike ride that evening and I took some photos from my bike of Larry riding in the steam that was coming up from the lane into our camp ground. Sometimes it was more like fog - you could see it moving thru the camp sites. Still no wildlife.

Today we hung in close to camp. I filed lots of paperwork and got that off of our table and off the floor. We laid out our outdoor mat over the picnic table to dry. Before today's rain hit, we got stuff put away while it was dry. I cooked pinto beans and baked cornbread for dinner. Went for a walk and now we're in for the night. Pretty dull stuff but I'm really enjoying the quiet life.

In the morning, we're leaving for the next camp ground. It's not too far away but one of our camping neighbors is from that area and he said that if I thought this was in the middle of nowhere, wait until I get to the next one. He said it was really out in the middle of nothing, but it will be on a lake. In fact, the road to get there ends in the lake. We'll probably try to venture into Lexington during that week.
