Mount Desert Narrows Camping Resort

Another view

View from the campground

Village Green, Bar Harbor

While on Mt Desert Island, we took a bus tour of Acady National Park and on the second day, we went to Southwest Harbor. 

 

The Island Explorer free shuttle buses are very convenient. Next time here, we might stay closer to Southwest Harbor and we might manage the logistics better to take the ferry or mail boat to Great Cranberry Island and Ilesford.

18-21 July 2017 MD College Park Cherry Hill Park

Easy commute to DC – bus from the park (which has bus station) to College Park Metro station. Quick ride into the city, change to another line or dccirculator bus. Wednesday national American history museum. Thursday holocaust museum – great. Friday (finally got tickets) nation museum of African American History & Culture – good museum & great food. Well managed & huge park with adequate cafe.

09-15 July 2017 OH Yellow Springs John Bryan State Park

Finally snagged the shady spots but far from water.

Molly rolling in the grass.

Buster stretching his legs. Not as interesting (varied) as Bow River campground in Medicine Bow National Forest (WY) but a welcome change from the confines of the RV.

 

08 July 2017 IN Crawfordsville KOA

Not de older park. Lots of trees. Poor Buster – too much change for him. John has been wonderful setting up a run for him. Almost lost so Buster in Winnemucca – he spent th night out. Then he had a serious heat reach ion in Nebraska – it was HOT!

07 July 2017 IL Rock Island / Quad Cities KOA

Two lakes.  We did a little round with a canoe. Nice.

Tried cable again. Limited success – no Rachel.

I made a mistake on Rez and had to take an overly nice ($$$) site – only one available.
