Nice to be here and visit with friends , get laundry done, enjoying the decorations and a campfire with friends.

Where are we today ? 
 clic a pic to enlarge it
   It was a nice mild night good for sleeping with some windows open. At 5am 52F and some sun today but windy. We are enjoying the sun outside. This campground is part of our ROD (Resorts Of distinction Membership system, free camping for members) About 7:30 this morning got a nice walkabout the campground by the Ponds (lakes) still a few nice fall colors around and lots of Canada Geese using the lakes for a stop over on their winter migration.
      Then about 9 am Suzie has sorted the laundry and I took it to let the machines do their magic. 3 large loads after 3 weeks since the last time. Nice machines here in the park and only $1.50 each to wash and the same to dry. That was all done by 10:30 then we enjoyed a light tasty lunch. I made a short trip to the store  for some Tortillas and cheese for tonights supper Chicken Enchiladas . These I will do inside in the oven so I stowed our Weber Q, not needed tomorrow either and we pull out of here Sunday..
      Now wander  about taking a few  pics here and there of some daytime halloween decorations that are set up. There will be lots more tonight and on Saturday. 
love this scary spider
lots of piles of leaves, but the wind
is blowing them around
        Fixed another compartment strut, I just switched it out with another old one but now that door stays open, this is the one for our water and sewage hook ups that I use all the time, I got tired of it hitting me in the head,
much better now 
    Now to enjoy some quiet reading outside with bits of sunshine here it is pretty nice out here. 64 F for a while but  cool wind gusts to 30 mph.
     Shortly after 3 pm  we  went to visit friends Al and Sandra Dickson at the front campground. We met many years ago. I worked with their son, back in the day, they were full-time for 15 years, now part time. So nice to see them again and catch up for a while.
        Now home to whip up supper the chicken Enchiladas are a nice treat we have not had for a long time , use up some of our chicken and of course a salad to go with it.
used this easy mix
this sure was tasty,
a real treat
the red spots are
ghost peppers from my son.
    So far our day has been pretty good, relaxing and getting things taken care of. Now to take it easy and get ready for the big, busy day tomorrow.
took the garbage out and spotted this
interesting display 
cool scary stuff on their tent
    Then we went to Bill and Barbs to enjoy a nice campfire, our friend Betty was their as well, It was wonderful for about 40 minutes then the rain started about 7:40 pm.That kinda puts a damper on our nice campfire so we ended up just heading back home and inside for the evening.
this campfire sure was awesome until the rain started 
    So many more decorations that are cropping up in no time at all as people arrive for the weekend.
    That was our fun day and looking forward to even more fun tomorrow.
    Thanks for dropping in for a peak and hope you had a wonderful day as well

  7. Ghost peppers .... appropriate for Halloween. I love all their decorations. Must be kind of hard to leave such a beautiful park.

    1. The ghost peppers were wonderful and thought they were needed for Halloween. The park closes the end on the month for the winter and we do want to keep on moving on down the road.

  8. Love the chairs! The colors are awesome and all the decorations! People really get into their holidays up there and it seems all in the East. Your enchiladas look awesome! The fire looks awesome too bad the rain cut it short! You seem to have friends everywhere you go :)

    1. I do love the chairs too. The decorations here are always wonderful, so many people have too much fun on this weekend. The enchiladas were excellent thanks. At least we did get to enjoy a bit of the campfire.
      With 48 years camping we have met a lot of people wherever we go, part of the camping experience.
