A bit of rain overnight, but only cloudy this morning. At 9:00 coffee & pastries supplied by Escape Trailer Industries gathered a bunch of campers. While most of the food was gone, the gathering was still going at 11:00.

The pot luck was, as usual, filled with all kinds of food; enjoyed by all.

About one third of the park emptied out during the day, but many are staying an extra day or two. The campground hosts are great at cleaning up the sites after people leave. They shut off the breakers, use a leaf blower to clear the leaves from the pad (although at this time of year the pad gets covered in one afternoon) and rakes the gravel smooth.
