Yesterday, MY Jane and I travelled to Killbear to scope out campsites for next year. We spent a few hours walking and driving around looking at the different campground sections in there. The park is a lot bigger than we thought. Of course, when we got close to the water, Jane just had to stick her toes in to see what the temperature was.
She later told me it was nice, but the expression on her face tells a different story.
Many of the sites, the ones closer to the water were spectacular. The views were amazing.
We found a picnic table on the beach and stopped for a bit to have snack and drink that Jane had brought along.
I took a few minutes to push this tree back into the upright position.
In speaking with various people who were camping there, we learned that some of the prime sites, the ones by the water, are reserved up to five months ahead. People apparently sit by their computers just waiting for the availability of their favourites. And sites can be reserved for up to 23 days at once. If you wanted to, there’s even a way to book back to back 23 day outings which the Parks people don’t tell you about.
After leaving the park about three hours later, we stopped by Parry Sound to have a bite eat. Originally, we had talked about taking a longer scenic route to return home, but we were a bit tired so we’ll do that another day.
