We are home again, but only for about ten days or so and then we are headed out again. This camping stuff is exhausting.
Here Scout and I are very tired. We are at Sonic waiting for lunch.
We visited Stockton Lake. The campground was hit really hard by the storms. They had to close down one of the campgrounds because trees were all over the road.
We saw a lot of damage while we were driving around. We are so glad we waited until the storms passed to travel on Friday.
Here is the pet walk area in front of our motor home. See, it was really nice. There were bunnies running all over.
Here is the fenced play area. We visited it four times. We really liked being able to be off leash. Mama tried to get Scout to do some agility stuff, but she didn't want to at all.
We saw this onion truck at a rest area. We've never seen onions transported like that. Mama said she would have liked to have had a bag of them. We saw this truck two more times, but we didn't any more photos.
I'm really tired, so I'm going to take a nap and write more tomorrow.

We made it to the campground!
After a 5 hour delay due to storms, we finally left the house. It's a good thing that we waited because there were tornadoes or what appear to be tornadoes here. It's all over the news. We saw some damage along the highway such as knocked down road signs and billboards. Our campground appears to be fine, but we are so glad we were not driving into the bad weather. They received over 4" of rain here. We noticed that the rivers were quite swollen.
Since we arrived here so late, we haven't really been able to do much. We went to the dog park area. It's pretty small. It's probably fine for the ankle biters, but we need a little more room to play. Mama said they will take us back to it in a little while and let us off leash if no one else is around. We have a really nice place to walk in front of our camper. It's a dog walk area and it's really big. The campsites are not spacious and we have the ones that are supposed to be luxurious. LOL We are really on top of each other here. We have never been impressed with the private campgrounds because of that, but we thought we would give it another try. We are waiting to see how many times the trains wake us up tonight. Mama read a review last night that said it was pretty bad at night and also that the airport is close by. LOL
Have to go... Daddy just said it's time to go to the playground!

Stormy Morning
We are supposed to be on the road right now, but it's very stormy here. If we left now, we would be driving right into the storms. Daddy decided we should let them pass even if we loose time on our camping trip. There is a tornado warning right now in the area that we are camping out, so we don't want to mess with this storm. The weather guy said that the wind gusts are 70 mph. Yep, we will let this pass. After the storms pass, we should have great weather the rest of the weekend.
We had storms last night and Scout and I were so scared. We hate storms!
Mama just realized that we do not have two weekends before our next camping trip. We only have one week off. That's what she calls it... off time from camping. LOL
Talk to you from the campground!

Another Camping Trip
We are busy getting ready for our next trip. We head out tomorrow for Springfield, MO. We are staying in a private campground. We normally stay in state parks, but KOA is having a stay a night get one free this weekend. The campground has an off leash play area for dogs. Mama said we will have to see if it is okay for us. We don't want to be in there with ankle bitters. The campground is close to Bass Pro Shop, so after Scout and I get tired from visiting a civil war battlefield, Mama and Daddy will go shopping. It should be a fun weekend, but a short one. We normally go for four days, but this weekend is only three days. After this trip, we will be home for two weekends and then we go away for Memorial weekend and then the next week we head to Kansas to meet my "real" Daddy and other greyhounds. This camping stuff is tiring!
