Just got back from a weekend stay at one of the local
Missouri State Parks. When we got there Thursday morning there were only 3 sites
not taken for the weekend. Except for the thunderstorms Thursday night we had a very good time. Even though it rained about 2 or 3 inches we were snug inside our
GS AmeriLite TT. Even the dogs settled in for a nice nights sleep. Friday and Saturday were clear and sunny
. That gave us the chance to try out some new recipes
in our dutch oven. The weekend went pretty fast as ususal and we weren't ready
to come home this morning. On the drive home we were planning our next trip
. Even with the $4 a gallon gas we still plan on going as often as we can get away. There are 4 or 5 State Parks within a 50-some mile radius of home. Spent less that $30 for gas this trip. The ol'
Dodge got 8.6 mpg pulling the trailer. It gets about 10 not towing. That's acceptable.
