My Perfect RV Campground (by Asher)

-

When you drive in, the office is on the right with a lane to park in while you check in. You drive on a paved road through a campground with plenty of trees. There aren't any ditches or tight turns on the road. 

Then you arrive at your clearly marked site at an angle convenient for pulling in. The site is level and held back with a retaining wall made of natural materials. The utilities are close to the site and there is plenty of room for the slides.

After setting up, you could bike to the big playground on the smooth roads, or you could take a walk around the lake. Dinner could be eaten outside at the picnic table on the concrete patio, without any neighbors right up next to you. 

If you fancied a shower after dinner, then head down to the bathhouse along the well lit street. All the lights are facing downward as to not contribute to light pollution. The bathhouse is clean and also well lit. The lights in the bathroom are always on. 

Step into the shower, close the door behind you, and set the timer to control the lights and fan for your own shower. The handle for the shower is on the side of the shower so you don't have to get in the shower to turn it on and be hit with cold water. The showerhead has different settings and is on the side above the handle. The walls of the shower go all the way to the ceiling so that the heat is kept inside.

When you're done with your shower, open the curtain and step into the vestibule to get dressed. The floor has a rubber mat on it so that your feet don't get wet again. All your clothes are either on hooks or on the wooden bench. It's probably some fancy wood from japan or something, carved by the finest woodcarvers from Italy. It has dragons and knights and pasta carved into it.

After you come out of the shower, you might need to use the bathroom. If you do, then go into the stall and close the door. There are no cracks in the sides of the door. The toilet paper is within easy reach. When you flush, the toilet isn't super loud.

In the morning there is a kids activity.

Food

As we traveled the country, we tried to experience local culture. We didn't have much time in each location, so we thought that one of the best ways to do this quickly was to partake of local foods. Therefore, in addition to our National Park theme , we also had a "local food" theme. As we hit each state, we ate a food famous in that state. Just an example; we didn't go off of this map We quickly came to realize that this is a very subjective endeavor. Before we started, I ignorantly assumed that each state would have one or two "famous" foods, making the selection process easy. Not true. First of all, most of what shows up on lists of foods by state is hardly "famous." It's more like "foods you will definitely find in this state and may or may not find elsewhere." Some states have a dozen such foods or more. Many states have the same "famous" foods (there is a lot of crossover with fruit and beef). Second, much of this food...

Lassen Volcanic National Park

We have officially entered the Pacific Ring of Fire. Well, we've technically been in it for the past few months while in California, but none of the parks we've been to have been related... until now. Starting with Lassen, we're about to hit multiple parks built around volcanos. Other than Mt. Saint Helens and that one in Hawaii that never stops, I would have been hard pressed to name another volcano that erupted in this country... ever. But sure enough, Mount Lassen erupted numerous times between 1915 and 1921, doing quite a bit of damage to the surrounding area (there is a section near the mountain called "the devastated area," which is humorous because it's all grown back and looks perfectly normal now). We've had remarkably good weather for our park days, but as you can probably tell from the picture above, that luck ran out at Lassen. I'm guessing a lot of it had to do with us being at elevation, but the entire day was chilly and foggy. If we look...

My Family's House (by Jordan)

-
It all started out with our adoption. We've been waiting for about 3 years to adopt a child. When my dad put the house on Zillow someone's wife wanted to buy it in 10 minutes. But the husband promised his wife a pool. So they didn't buy the house. There were a few others that I can't remember. But finally Melissa and Tim stepped up! They bought the house. We left March fifth. Tim and Melissa have a daughter named Brook. We are on March sixth now and we are enjoying our time at Poinsett State Park!
