Day 3

Woke up early this morning (early at least for me).  The sun is bright and everything is very wet from dew.  I took Ditto out for her walk and she got a surprise.  Right across the road were two horses munching on the grass.  At first, I thought they may have gotten loose, but then I saw the hobbles they were wearing.  As we walked along the road past the horses, I noticed Ditto had gotten on the other side of me so I was between her and the horses.

Good morning!

I’m not sure yet where we’re heading from here.  My original plan had us stopping at Fort Knox.  Pumpkin has a few cargo carrying weight to spare and I thought I might just top it off with a few gold bullion ingots.  But, that would mean we’d have to carry that excess weight a long ways.  That would be a waste of diesel.

Okay, went to Fort Knox after all.  The Army has a FamCamp (family campground) at nearby Lake Carlson, so that’s where we landed for the night.  It’s a bit crowded, but it’s quiet and well kept.
