Prairie Island Campground in Winona MN sounded like a nice stopping place on our trek along the Mississippi shore according to the AllStays app. A phone call confirmed that they had a spot for us. But when we arrived we discovered that half this city park campground was hosting a Boats and Bluegrass Festival for 700 people this weekend and that the concert was sold out. The other side of the campground, where our site is located is filled to capacity but not so crazy. We walked down to the river to enjoy the sunset and lingered on a bench on a dock to enjoy the colors in the sky while music wafted in our direction. We’ll enjoy the relative quiet until the concert’s over this evening. Hopefully things will quiet down quickly afterwards. And we’ll move on again in the morning!
Cuyahoga Valley National Park
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
