Is Sandi going to get you in the kayak? Hope the weather gives you all some breaks. It is beautiful down there. :)

You got a Winegard Carryout! Good for you! :) Am I seeing 2 cords coming from it? If so, you can disconnect the electric/12-volt cord and it'll still work -- I promise. You only need that for the dome to initially get the satellite signal.

Have a great time, Mitch! More pictures will be delightful!

Unless your locals are on a different satellite. Tried it at home (disconnecting power) - didn't work.

Very nice here so far except for the drop offs in campsites and off and on rain. It is a beautiful area.

You will notice Magic had to be pulled in forward- that is not because I didn't want to back up. Backing in the hookups would have been on wrong side and power and hose would not reach even with my extensions. Even this way, had to add 10 feet to hose for water. Also didn't want to try to sleep with my head downhill- used all my leveling blocks, did not have enough to come anywhere near level.

Linda and Sandy do plan to get kayak out but but pretty good drive to launch area from campsite.

I do have some more photos to share if my signal gets strong enough to use hotspot for laptop. Worked early AM but not since.
On edit, pixs to Photobucket; sorry doesn't look as if they will make it to forum tonight but at least made some progress in that direction.

Oh, looks like a lovely place - except for being so far off level. Have a great time!

Well, I'd have more pics to offer if I hadn't left my memory card at home. And now that I bought a new one, its been raining.

But I did find a Mexican restaurant I need to try! Hopefully, it won't be raining in there.
