It is a very large preserve and pretty nice. It is on another of the rivers in this area - Piankatank River. I wonder who finds the names for these places? All of these rivers are off of the Chesapeake Bay. This park is a good option for us when (and if) we complete our time here in mid September. We would like to take a trip - probably 3 days - to Washington, D.C. before we leave the area. It would give us a free place to keep the fifth wheel while we drive the Jeep for the side trip. We spent a good amount of time talking to the workamper in the store there and we gained a pretty good insight into the attractions in the immediate area - lots of Civil War and Revolutionary War landmarks.
We received an email from Amazon.com asking for people (Workampers) to work in a pilot program from July 1st until October, when the regular program begins for the busy season. The problem with the pilot program is that you have to pay for your own site during that time and there is no bonus at the end of the time the pilot program runs. Not only that, but they couldn't guarantee at least 40 hours a week. We passed on that opportunity.
We are beginning to see comments on Facebook from our friends that returned to Cody that have gone to Yellowstone. I'm jealous that they are seeing all of the bears, wolves and other neat wildlife that we are missing this year. It reinforces our belief that that part of the country is the best and most beautiful so far of all the places we've been. It's hard to beat the variety of outdoor activities available to you in that area of the country.
The weather looks better today but we need to get some chores done - like the laundry, for one - so we will probably enjoy a day sitting outside and reading for the most part. It's back to work tomorrow...
