Still in South Dakota, day three

Kennebec

We stopped on the road to walk the dog and they had a nice overlook of the Missouri River and a big statue of Sacajawea.  Very nice rest area.

 
























We are here now in Kennebec, at the KOA.  The town population is under 300, there is nothing here at all, but its a good place to stop on the way to the Black Hills.  When we arrived about 1:00 there was no one there at all. I mean NO ONE.

No campers anywhere, no one in sight. The office had a note on the door saying they'd be open at 4 with a list of  six names and their spots.  There was a night registration table that had pamphlets with the rules, map, and internet code on it.  We had site 111.  We found it and set up, it was COLD. When did that happen?  

As soon as we set up it the wind started

blowing so we pulled in the awning.
Since we were the only people there I let Buffy run around a little bit.  They had a dog run right by us, but it was a bit over run. The grass came up past Buffy's legs, so we didn't use it.

  There was a pool,

it was clean and the water wasn't too cold, but the air was very cold, and wet, so no pool today.
Then it started to rain, and it didn't completely stop all afternoon or night.

About 4:30 other RV's started arriving.  They were all bunched up at the two ends of the park.  Weird, I would have spread everyone out.   They have an outdoor "Chuck Wagon" that serves dinner and breakfast.  It serves hamburgers and hotdogs in the evening, so we got burgers. They were pretty good, came with beans and chips.

I'm sitting in the laundry room now washing and drying the towels we used to

clean up all the mud from last night and this morning.  Bob just ran over to the chuck wagon to get me some pancakes.




Well my laundry is done and we need to pack up and go. Next stop Mount Rushmore...
