Another weekend gone by too quickly. We both commented this morning how we could really go for an extended camping trip, even if just for a few more days than a Friday/Saturday. This weekend was at Alum Creek State Park again. This was the first place we went with the new camper in May. This time was much warmer and the park was much busier. This time we chose a site towards the back of the park which I would recommend if you want a quieter experience. Not a lot of traffic back here. I'd also suggest making reservations. When we arrived on Friday I was glad that we did because there didn't seem to be a whole lot of sites open.
We had a nice day in Columbus Saturday which is only about 15-20 minutes away. When we got back we were enjoying the afternoon when it started to rain just slightly. Before we knew it we had a crazy pop-up thunderstorm with some heavy downpours. Our neighbors nearby had their awning collapse. I can only assume they didn't have it set up right. Always remember when setting your awning to have one side lower than the other so if it rains the awning sheds water instead of holding water weight in the middle.
