It’s a primitive site in the Lost Bridge West State Recreation Area at Salamonie Lake near Andrews IN. Last night we had full hookups at a KOA. Tonight our fanciest amenity is running water at the community spigot! There are more developed campgrounds in the park but we chose this so that we can refine our dry camping skills rather than wait until we are in a truly remote campsite to discover we lack a critical piece of equipment or bit of know how. Besides that we are blessed with being the sole occupants of the campground and the opportunity to sit together under the apple tree!
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.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
It’s been a fascinating two day visit to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. We managed to pack in tours of the HMS Warrior, the HMS Victory as well ast Victory Live: The
Big Repair, and finally the Mary Rose. All were incredibly informative and well presented.
