Thursday, 29June, Lake Gaston, NC

So we have a confirmed booking here for another two nights – we tried phoning several other camps where we might stay for the long weekend, they are all full.  So our plan is to wear them down here, with consistent requests for any cancellations, so we can stay for the weekend, or at least the Saturday night

The only thing we are out of is milk – Kim has discovered just this morning that by necessity he is quite OK with black tea.  Coffee is no problem, he has half and half in his and we have enough of that to last until our next shop whenever it might be.
 
Went for a walk around the whole place this morning, took over an hour (trying to secretly suss out where we might be able to dry camp if we need to).  They are expanding, opening up some more RV sites, hope they are for casuals rather than permanents.  There are 254 sites here, 34 cabins, probably 220 permanents, although they must have standards as there aren’t too many scuzzy ones.

We are bottom left, no. 26
Went down to the loungers beside the lake for a sunning session today, we were the only ones there.  However the lake bottom is not as foot friendly as the pool (stood on some unidentifiable things) so only had a quick dip before heading off to the pool for a proper swim.


Sunning ourselves on the loungers on the sand

Enjoying the view!

  1. I would like to be sunning in the sand with you right now - pretty cold here, but no wind. The town is inundated with Lions supporters in their red gear - lots waiting for the Valley Flyer on Seaview Road ready to go into town. So, you can't have everything! Life's pretty exciting here at the moment - lots going on.
