Campground # 1 on the KY to MA trail

This was called Lynchburg Thousand Trails but was located in Gladys, VA. Go figure :)

This was the first campground at which I arrived after dark and got to call the "ranger" on the walkie-talkie. He finally got the garbled message, drove up and checked me in, then pointed me toward what he thought would be the sites I'd like best. He was almost right. I moved the next morning to maximize the shade.

Compared to the other Thousand Trails sites, this campground was not great... but it was ok. The lake was too goose-poopy for swimming, but the pool was nice. And the laundry room was clean - but only one dryer worked.

Oh well. It was a fine place to recoup some energy after a long week of dancing. And I spent a relaxing couple of hours on a jigsaw puzzle in the well-air-conditioned "adult rec hall" that you see here.

This is a typical site at the campground - actually it's a little nicer than the one I took (more woodsy), but was further from the bathhouse, etc.
