Very windy last night up to 25 mph and a cold north wind this morning only 52f. I bundled up for my first walkabout enjoying the cool fresh morning air, even though kinda chilly. I did notice a few tell tale traces of burrows wandering through the park. Made a large deposit behind a trailer just a few sites down from us. Yes they are in the area alright. And later this afternoon we saw a family of wild burrows.

HI MAMA !
And she brought 3 young ones with her |
Next walkabout the views and a nice sunrise cross the river this morning and along the beach. Really whats' not to love about this area?
 |
| love the beach here too |
With all the wind last night and this morning the palm trees were shedding. As I noticed around the park.
Then at 8:15am we wandered over to the Tiki Bar for our very first ever Champagne Breakfast which consisted of Ham, eggs, potatoes, danish, coffee, juice and Champagne for only $5.99 each. What a nice treat, hot, tasty and filling this will keep us going most of the day.
 |
| this sure took care of breakfast and then some |
Couple more walkabouts and today is a day to enjoy our e-readers. Nothing once again on the agenda and just fine with us. I finished one book , read 2 more books (short stories) and settled into another page turner. 4 books in one day !

 |
| ok another Patterson book I can get into |
Enjoying our books I noticed something strange walking by outbox the corner of my eye.
 |
| where is this guy going? |
Ok gotta check this out. The family wandered through the campsite next to us and a couple of neighbours as well. These are wild burrows, but used to people and the campgrounds around. They just make themselves at home and eat whatever they can find. We are in their living rooms so why not make them feel at home?
 |
| this be a youngster |
Apparently they like the leaves that fall from the palm trees and are really having a buffet.
 |
| main course it looks like |
 |
| he looks so lonely |
Hmm looks like they found some more interesting food a camper left out some plants and stuff (they are not home).
 |
| hey Jack, what do we have here? |
 |
| desert? |
 |
| lets check out this table too, more treats! |
 |
they cleaned it all up and moved on down the road
was fun to see these guys here |
Now back to our reading time after chatting with a few neighbours, Enjoying the view, our books, a few high speed boats and water skiers up and down the river. Just like being at the beach in the summer back home.
 |
| love the views of the river from here |
But soon time for supper, with only our breakfast feast this morning under our belts, need to eat a bit more. Tonight a couple of Turkey burgers on the grill and Suzie wanted french fries. Heck the Tiki Bar right next store so while I did the burgers she grabbed an order of fries, The burger healthy , the fries not so much. We gotta get outta this place a bad influence me thinks!
 |
| burgers on the grill and a couple english muffins warming in foil |
 |
| that was it very tasty and very filling |
Supper done and another nice sunset to wind up a fun relaxing day with some wild company.
 |
another nice sunset, almost every day,
really gotta love it |
We did what we wanted today and enjoy it to the fullest, A bit cooler but the wind died down and was in shorts most of the day outside walkabouts reading and chatting with the wildlife, and neighbours too.
Thank you for taking the time for a read and hope you had a great day as well.
Want to learn more about Membership camping

Where have we been this winter ?
Nice pics of the burros, the remind me of the squirrels at home that will come into your site and make themselves at home if you leave any type of food out ... the burros are just a little bigger :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks it was nice to see them up close and personal .Don't leave food out !
DeleteThose are some great prices at the Tiki Bar!!
ReplyDeleteLove those donkeys!!! So cute...but I bet those folks weren't too happy when they got home and their plants and stuff were eaten!!
Their prices here are very reasonable no doubt about it. I guess they learned a tough lesson..
DeleteWhat fun watching the 'visitors'. Those burros look so clean and healthy. They are getting lots to eat, I guess. That must have been fun.
ReplyDeleteChampagne breakfast looks yummy and lots to keep you filled for the day.
I think you are moving tomorrow? If so, travel safe.
It was fun watching our "visitors". They are healthy thats for sure
DeleteThe breakfast was yummy and kept us going all day long.
We not leaving here until Tuesday and we will travel safe thanks, you guys too.
Love the burro pictures. They look so sad and lonely.
ReplyDeleteEnjoying the park views with that stretch of water there. I'll bet it just makes you feel cooler looking at it.
Keep on having fun!!!
They are so friendly for being wild not afraid of people that for sure..
DeleteIt is a nice park and beside the river does makes it very special.
Having fun is what we do.
We had the same winds here at Big Bend yesterday too.
ReplyDeleteYou had me at Champagne...lol The burros are such a hoot.
Tha Champagne Breakfast was wonderful and the burros fun to watch.
DeleteWhat a hoot to watch the donkeys roam through the park. Maybe the owners of the deserted buffet picnic tables will clean up next time before taking off. The aroma warfting from the tiki bar's cooking must tempt you to no end. I'd be eating all day long ;-)
ReplyDeleteThey are fun to watch roaming around people should always clean up their picnic tables when they are done, not everyone does. The aromas do blow this way glad we are leaving soon. Get away from temptation.
DeleteWhat an awesome breakfast, they sure didn't skimp on the food! Champagne to compliment, yum! The burros would definitely be fun to watch, I'm thinking when you check in, someone must tell you about them and not to leave food out when you leave..I'd say lesson learned for those folks when they got back. Your dinner looks so good, love those fries with the ridges!
ReplyDeleteThe breakfast was a wonderful way to start the day with the Champagne too. Love the burrows. I would think a responsible camper would not leave food our especially when you see signs along the roadways here about wild burros maybe they learned their lesson. Dinner was wonderful thanks and the crinkle fires a bonus too.
DeleteGREAT burro pictures. My my my ..... never leave ANYTHING out. They have cast iron stomachs. House plants are like cake to them!!
ReplyDeleteThanks it was fun to follow them around, they sure had a feast here.
DeleteThem burros are the cutest things with their sad eyes. Have you been to Oatman, an old RT66 town? Its known for streets full of wild burrows, and lots of other characters.... Watch where you step.
ReplyDeleteThey are very cute gotta, watch where you step in the campground too. We have been to Oatman many times , love it there and lotsa burros all around the areas as well.
DeleteI have seen a lot of wild burros in the south west. They seem to flourish in that area.
ReplyDeleteThey sure do lots to eat and drink.
