Warba, MN 7-21

Today we were on the road by 9:30. We’d gone a little over an hour when we stopped at a campground we wanted to check out. It was beautiful, but had too many checks against it. There was road construction going on, so noisy, and the trees blocked any chance of getting a shot at the satellite, no blog, and the bugs were really annoying, so we’d end up inside, we moved on. There are lots of resorts around but they are all too pricey.

We traveled 111 miles today. We are in an American Legion campground in Warba, MN on Interstate 2 east of Grand Rapids. Pulled in at 12:15. We lucked out as we were able to get a satellite shot in one of the two spaces available. All the rest of the sites are reserved for a Good Sam Rally and a family reunion. Weekends are tough in the summer. The best thing to do is find somewhere on Thursday and settle until Sunday or Monday. If you have to move on Friday then you really need to try and get in early or the few spaces that are available are gone. It is $15 a day for elec. and water.

We are on a lake that is a little larger than the last one we were at. I am hoping to get a picture of a Loon, but no luck so far. They are loud when they are calling to each other. One popped up near us but my camera was turned off and he submerged again before it got up and running.

It is a lovely 81 here right now and mostly cloudy. Keeps it cooler!
