Oh, It Was a Holiday Weekend

Friday we came back to Lincoln Parish Park in Ruston, LA. And though I still enjoyed the walking and mountain biking trails, and the infrastructure they have built to accommodate both,

I was dismayed to see that by Saturday afternoon every site along the reservoir was occupied. And it was cloudy.

Sunday dawned clear and cold. It’s hard to tell but there’s ice on the shallow water here. We made the best of it, but the only view out our dinette window was the huge motorhome next to us. We kept the shade down.

Then this morning everyone left!

We have our lovely terraced site…

all to ourselves.

Then I realized, today is MLK Jr. day and all the folks who came camping for the three day weekend had to go home today. It’s nice to be the ones who get to stay!
