Gone tubing ...

Ya know the expression: "I'd much rather be lucky than good." Well that applies to us this weekend!

We were looking for a campsite with electric hookups since it's been so hot lately (for our A/C), and called to see about reserving one at the Mohican State Park Campground in Ohio. At first they weren't sure they had any left, but then, they found one. Sure, we'll take it (expecting the worst, but happy for A/C).

Well, sure enough, when we arrived, the place was PACKED. But it looks like we got probably the BEST campsite in the park, right on the river! And what did we see floating by, but people! Boy, they sounded like they were having a ball.



So we stayed an extra day (more serendipity on that as well), and we bought ourselves some inner tubes and jazzy water shoes, walked on up the river a ways, and decided to jump in! We too had a ball. Maybe you will get a feel with this video. I hope you enjoy it. And if you ever get a chance to visit this campground, be sure to try to reserve a electric hook-up site in the 142-153 loop, and ask for "riverside".
