Eel Weir State Park, Day 9

Woke up to temps in the low 50s. Sleeping was great!

We hung out at camp all day and did a little packing as we return home tomorrow.

While we were sitting around in the afternoon this came by:

It's a 1972!

We had another good dinner from the Blackstone: Philly Cheese Steaks.

There is no rain in the forecast for tomorrow, so packing up should go just fine.

Eel Weir State Park, Day 8

The day started out with another good breakfast on the Blackstone. I know I said it before, but we are loving this griddle. Later we did shrimp wrapped in prosciutto on it for appetizers.  

We had another nice weather day and I took the kayak out for a spin.

The current in the river was fairly strong, so I didn't stay out for too long.

Had some ABs before dinner with the shrimp. Had a nice dinner of grilled chicken. Afterward we all sat by the campfire and used up the last of the wood. 

It's been a fun week and it looks like the weather is going to cooperate until we get home. 

 

Eel Weir State Park, Day 7

Jerry & Carolyn made a breakfast of SOS..YUM!

After breakfast we sat around and enjoyed the perfect weather. Jerry took a little snooze and Kaylee checked him a few times to make sure he was still alive!

Late morning we all took a drive to Kaneb Orchards near Massena. Had some cider donuts and washed them down with a cider slushy. We also picked up some refreshment for back at camp.

We spent the afternoon relaxing and people watching as it is Friday and many folks are arriving for the Labor Day weekend.

Only a couple more days to go for this trip. The week has gone fast.

Eel Weir State Park, Day 6

It was a beautiful day, the weather is perfect!

Cath and I ran into town, after a breakfast of Scrapple and eggs on the Blackstone, to pick up a few things.

Back at camp we got the campfire going as temps are in the high 60s. We burned it all day.

We could sit here all day long and look at this view.

After a yummy dinner of Gyros on the Blackstone we stayed by the campfire. Some of us nodded off!

Sleep will be great tonight with temps in the high 40s.
 

 

Eel Weir State Park, Day 5

The new Blackstone griddle is getting to be our favorite camping tool. We had French Toast and Bacon this morning. We like the griddle as we don't have to cook in the camper and clean-up is a breeze.

We spent most of the day at Jerry & Carolyn's around the campfire as the weather cooled of nicely. Even the dogs were happy.

We have had this hawk in the area since we got here. It's fun to watch him fish, but he squawks all the time. It gets a little irritating.

Around 1500 we had a real gully washer! It only lasted a short while, but it really rained hard and even included hail! Here's tail end of it.

The rest of the day and evening was great. Temps are going to be in the low 50s tonight, perfect sleeping weather.
