Day 9, Monday, October 28, 2024 - Chester State Park, Chester, SC - 219.7 Miles, 936.3 Miles for the Trip
After my morning (and cold) walk and breakfast I finished packing up the trailer, getting it ready for travel, unhooked the utilities, said good bye to the Guidos, and headed south. Heavy traffic on I 77, stop & go a couple of places. I arrived at Chester State Park around 2:30, and found site 19. No tags on the site & no one in the ranger station, so I just backed into the site & set up. The site is on gravel with a tent pad, picnic table & fire ring as well as a lantern hanger. I needed a 3" side to side raise & a 3" drop for the tongue. The rates vary by day. I understand more for the weekends, but for some reason Tuesday is $3.00 more than Monday or Wednesday. If I average the daily rates, including state & local taxes, for the 6 nights I'm here it comes out to $36.52 per night.
Site 19 |
After leveling the trailer, I walked down to the lake and around the camping loop (29 sites).
After finishing setting up the trailer I sat outside in the sun enjoying the 65°F afternoon.
Dinner was a Beautiful Citrus Chicken with Broccoli & Carrots.
