Camping at Lake Carlyle, Il. We decided to leave home early Thursday. We arrived at 11:30 AM. We knew checkout time was 4:00 PM but we never had a problem before. Most people leave early. This time we were wrong. So we spent time running around. Went and checked out Hazlet campground. We are scheduled to go there in October. We went to McDonalds for lunch and then went back for ice cream. We went to Walmart twice. All trying to kill time.
The guy that had our site finally pulled out at 4:05 PM.
When we finally got in the site it was great. A pull thru right on the lake. The bathrooms were across the street. Could not of been better. The only way I got this site was I checked online everyday for a spot on the lake. They are booked all summer and fall. Someone cancelled so that's how we got it.
The weather was great. Sunshine and blue skies.
Friday the high was 87, Saturday about 91.
Weird pictures:
We did some bike riding. Rode across the dam and rode into town.
We had visitors too. Friends from our old Van Club days that live in Springfield, Il. Roger & Michelle. Turns out they have been regulars at this campground for over 20 years.
Today's forecast was for 99. We decided to head out early and go home.
Packed up and ready to head home:
We had a great weekend and hope to be able to go back here again.
