Friday & Saturday Camping at Rock Valley City Park

It's raining again!!!!

Friday 10-16-17

It rained steadily all night and into morning, it didn't stop until around 1:00. We were so happy, we put on our shoes and went for a walk. We walked a little over an hour and had walked over three miles. We walked around the ponds by the river and the beach area. We brought the umbrella along just in case it started to rain.   

During the afternoon  a few more RV's showed up and by the end of the afternoon there were over twenty RVs in the park. It was nice to see families with kids having fun riding bikes, going fishing, riding skateboards, running and playing at the playgrounds.

After dinner we went for another walk, this time we walked a little further, we walked by the disc golf area and across the river. The river is flowing even faster today. They predicted that they were going to get about 2.5 inches of rain and it appears they may have gotten more. We were glad we went when we did considering the rain came back about 8:00. It's suppose to be gone by the time we get up in the morning.

Even though we had rain we still had a good day.


Gorgeous Sunny Day

Saturday 10-7-17

The rain started up around midnight and stayed around until 9:00 this morning. We had breakfast and when the rain stopped we went for a walk. We walked around the campground and across the river, when we got on the other side we walked the trail towards the highway. The trail took us to a golf driving range and part of it was under water. There was a big group of Canadian geese and they were making a lot of noise. I guess we stirred them up. We know geese can be mean but we didn't realize how mean they are to each other. We saw a few of them going at each other but it didn't last too long. At the end of trail we saw some horses then we turned around and headed back to the campground. We walked for an hour and a half.

In the afternoon we did another walk. We took the trail around the campground and towards town. As we walked we saw a lot of people out walking and other people riding bikes, they were all out enjoying the sun. We saw a grandpa and a couple grandsons playing with an electric boat on one of the ponds. We also was families fishing.

For the last two nights we have been at Rock Valley Park we have enjoyed watching families having fun and we had a great time. The park is outstanding and very well maintained. LIFE IS GOOD!!!!
