All Set Up

Today we moved to Falls Reserve Conservation Area on the Maitland River.

It is north and a little east of Wheatley Provincial Park and it took us 3 hours and 20 minutes to get here.

We got to the gate at 2:03 and 45 minutes later we were level and unhitched, we had the electric and water hooked up, the slides out, the inside arranged, Starlink deployed and our outdoor rug staked out over the bare spot in front of our steps. Matey and I then went on our initial reconnaissance tour.

Across an open picnic area…

we found the river and the falls. Pretty little falls.

But it looks like it would be fun to go down there.

I wasn’t up to trying these steps with Matey. He is not good on steps anymore. We might try this with Bud’s help.

Instead we found a shortcut through the woods back to our loop.

We’re on Maple Loop and that’s a maple.

There are 188 campsites here, including 43 seasonal sites. You can tell this is a seasonal site by the PVC pipe hooked to the sewer. There are only 4 sites with 50 amp electric, water and sewer and we have one of them.

When Matey and I returned I put up my tent shelter, it’s warm out but there are gnats.

One of my favorite parts of camping is getting to a new place and getting everything set up. Home again!
