A Very Nice Place

We are back in Louisiana and back for a second visit to Jimmie Davis State Park. We stopped here for one night on our way down to New Orleans and thought it deserved a longer stay. I’m glad to be back among the tall trees.

We are enjoying having this nice campground mostly to ourselves. This morning we saw two foxes cross this open area, and late this afternoon a small herd of deer went across.

Or course there are few campers because we are winter camping. But last night was the last freezing night predicted for our stay, so no more dripping water taps. (Yes, that is ice on the ground, although most had already melted.)

Now we’re all hooked up for the rest of the week.

This is a really nice park. It has these docks for the campers to use.

They are lighted at night.

This cement walkway leads from the docks to the other side of the campground.

Louisiana State Parks have laundromats. So far they all have two washers and two dryers. As a full time camper, I really appreciate that. I’ll do wash before we leave.

And the park has a disc golf course. We played today. Matey had to be on leash most of the time for obvious reasons. He’s interacted with four armadillos today, so he is a tired and happy dog. (No animals were harmed to get this photo…thank goodness.)
