We decided to shorten our stay at St Joseph Peninsula and we
added a couple of days to our next stop. We’re hoping that by moving south to
the Orlando area we will get better weather. Our next camp is at Lake Louise
not far from Disney World. It is a new campground for us, but we have heard it
is a nice park.
We’ve stayed busy here and took a long hike yesterday
towards the end of the peninsula. It’s a long hike to get to the end (about
eight miles each way), so we only went in about three miles and then walked the
beach back. We did not see a single person the entire way, and only a couple of
sets of human footprints. There were a lot of deer tracks and bobcat tracks in
the sand. The white sand is so bright in this area it almost seems like you are
walking in snow. By the time we got back at the truck near the entry to the
wilderness area it was getting pretty warm out. We had lunch and then went down
to the seashore from camp. I took a fishing rod and we each had our chairs.
After sitting a while the sky darkened and the temperature started to drop with
a new wave of clouds. Nancy had to go back and get some warmer clothes. Our
neighbor came down with his fishing gear and we both soaked lines for a couple
of hours, but to no avail.
Later in the evening we played games with Jack and Mary O’Brien
from Grandville, Michigan, and then went back to camp for the night.
Today is Elizabeth's interview to get accepted to college in Pittsburgh! Let's all wish her the best!!
