We awoke this morning to fog outside but the sun soon burned most of it off and presented us with a beautiful day. Unfortunately, I am such a generous guy that I have now given the nasty illness I have to my beloved spouse. She doesn’t seem much happier about having the epizudiac than I do.
In order to give ourselves time to get better, we elected to loaf around all day, watching movies and reading. Nothing really happened other than lots of people coming into the park where we are camped. It is Saturday and I suppose we should expect bigger crowds. By evening the place was almost filled.
It is pretty plain why folks come here. The campground is located just north of Cloverdale right on the banks of the Russian River. The river water is crystal-clear. There is ample shade thrown by abundant madrone, oak, walnut and conifer trees along with some other species I can’t identify. The grass in the campground is bright green which is a change from the last time we were here back in July, 2014.
