We Have Found It

 

Our own little piece of “Heaven”.  We are way out in the country, near a small little town called Preston, Minnesota.  This Park is called Maple Springs Campground.  The people that own it are the sweetest people you could ever meet.  It used to be a dairy farm and was converted to an RV Park in 1993.  It sits right on a river that we intend to explore tomorrow.  It is a Pass Port America Park also.  A little higher than some we’ve stayed in, but it is worth it.  Doesn’t have a pool, or cable, or even sewage hook-ups, but it is just the perfect little Park, for a few days stay.

Want to welcome my new followers, Al, and Herb and Willie.

 

We hope to do some exploring tomorrow at the Laura Ingles Wilder Museum.  There is no phone service here, so will also try to call Uncle Boone from in town tomorrow.  He called yesterday and said that they had found blood in his urine, so I want to know what is going on there.

 

I am going to try and explain what happened with our awning yesterday.  The arms didn’t fall down or get blown down, it was the housing, or enclosure that goes around the awning.  The wind must have just caught it in the right place and it allowed some of the awning material to come out.  We have ended up with about a 3' rip.  We will see about getting it repaired or replaced when we get to Indy.

 

I am going to make this a short post.  I am a bit tired from the over 300 mile drive today.

 

The internet here is a bit slow too, so hope I can get this posted.

 

Stay safe…. :)

That is certainly a beautiful park you are in. Why don't I ever find that kind when I'm on the road?

Enjoy the Laura Ingalls Museum - I really want to get to that one plus the one in De Smet SD. Someday.

Looks like a nice little CG there. Lots of green grass is always nice. Hope Uncle Boone's situation isn't too serious.

Enjoy your time in that area.
