Stillwater Resort for Memorial Day

There hasn't been much camping over the last year.  A few days in October at Tyler Jellystone, half a week in Fredericksburg for Spring Break, and that's about it.  A tough school year and a teen has made taking the RV out tough.  But we managed to book Memorial Day at Stillwater RV Resort in Winona.

We arrived on Saturday because Friday night was a graduation Steph had to attend, but it allowed the saturated ground to dry a bit.  It has been weeks for almost continual storms and rain.  In fact, we required 4x4 action to get out of the shed.

Saturday was crazy and this place was packed.  The humidity was oppressive, but that made the lazy river all the better.  Things Monday quieted down significantly, and it became the first time I could take a few pics.  

The resort offers a credit for first responders, including VFDs, so we used it for a pizza at the cafe.  It was really good and a great option for those not wanting to cook (like me tonight 😜).

Heading home tomorrow, but we will return to Stillwater when time allows.

Rain!

This has been such a wet spring.  I have lost track of how many inches of rain we have received over the past few months.  Tornados nearby a few weeks ago.  Schools to the south and entire towns flooded!  Wild!

Last night this monster came through.  So much lightening.

2.7 inches of rain.

And when checking animals, we found thousands of these guys.  Upon investigation, we think they are horsehair worms.  Harmless to mammals but go after insects like crickets and grasshoppers.

We are expecting more rain through the week.
