Winter Excursion 3, Day 93

I took the truck in this morning for an oil change. We've driven almost 7000 miles on this trip so far. I got back to camp around 1000. Cath made a nice breakfast and then we too a walk around the park.
First stop was the visitor center and the old sugar mill. This is what's left of it. It was in operation around 1850.

There are lots of live oaks in the park and tons of moss on them.




There is a nice beach and day use area. Here's Cath and Kaylee on the pier. The lake is only a few feet deep even out this far. Max depth for Lake Pontchartrain is 65 feet. 
Later in the afternoon we drove to Slidell and did a little food shopping. Back at camp we relaxed, had a nice dinner, and watched a few shows. It was cold today with the high in the low 40s, it should start to warm up a little in the next few days.
