Today I'll tell you a bit about the campground we are at. Ta Da! Here is the entrance...
and here is the hiking trail! As Chris walked the dogs on this woodland trail, he noticed wild raspberries in the bog. One morning he brought home a handful, which Caleb quickly devoured. Caleb exclaimed, "These are the sweetest ever!" So yesterday morning we headed out with containers in hand, in search of the elusive raspberry. Jack pot! We gathered and picked and talked loud enough that the bears would know we were there....and came home with quite a stash. After dyeing our fingers pink removing the wild stem, we had 1 1/2 cups of wild raspberries. Pretty good considering we didn't pick for very long...we forgot to put on bug spray! Mosquitoes were continually planning their attack strategies. Next time, bug spray. At Grandma's we debated what should become of our stash...muffins, pancakes, dessert, or Caleb's choice, let him eat them plain! We decided on Raspberry-Rhubarb Crisp...so Caleb and I went out to Grandma's garden and cut off a big stalk of Rhubarb. Mmmm...the final result was yummy! :-)
Here is our Arizona 5'er in the Canadian Northwoods...it's definitely not static-y inside with the humidity. As you can see, these new sites are nice and wide...and although you can't see, they're also long. They are full hook-up sites, up to 50 amp with both filtered and unfiltered water.
Here's a view of some of the other empty, new sites. I believe the cost keeps these sites empty. I'm hoping they readjust their cost structure for next year. We would like to stay here again, but probably won't at these rates. These sites are $44 a night or $265 a week Canadian funds. And there is a $4 a night dog fee. We leave Shadow (our old black lab) at the cabin, but that is still $8 a night for our two dogs. We can't figure that one out. So it's pretty pricey! Definitely the highest we've paid our entire trip and we're here the longest, go figure. But it was a last minute decision when we couldn't fit in the site given to us at the Provincial Park. The park has nice amenities: a full service marina, swimming beach, free firewood, wi-fi, a 24 hour laundry, and free wild raspberries for the pickin'!
