| Grenada State Park from our campsite |
After months of preparation we woke early this morning to
ready everything for the housesitter and load the last items into the
motorhome. Our first destination will
be Canton, Michigan to visit our son and his daughter. Clark was excited to climb into the motorhome
and settle into his bed on the floor between our seats. I forgot to connect his leash to my seatbelt
and he kept nudging me to remind me. I
wonder if it makes him feel safer or if it just one of those many rituals that
the dog insists on?
We chose to travel
the I-55 route. It is a few miles longer but we will do
almost anything to avoid the New Orleans traffic. Our trip was uneventful all of the way to our first stop near Grenada
, Mississippi. The trees along the route
were full and green from our cool wet spring .
The Corps of Engineers campground in Grenada was a wonderful
stop for our first night. We had a site
that covered at least an acre on the lake.
50 amps with water, a 100 foot long pull-through, a beautiful view, and only $10 a night with our Golden Age
pass. There were 88 sites here and
most of the families had boats or party barges to enjoy the lake. Bass were spawning along the shore and birds
singing in the trees. We will definitely
plan to return.
