Poverty Point, Delhi, LA (Visiting Again)

September 24 - 26

One of our favorite places to camp.  We were here in January and just had to return.  We got the same exact spot as last time, and it was great.  Gorgeous weather - sunny and cool at night.  Again, we didn’t see any bears, but oh well.  We ate at Thomson’s Drugstore in Delhi on Friday afternoon. They make chocolate sodas, but it was just ok. Great camp host and the sites are well- spaced. The bathroom was spotless with the laundry room being open. There is a playground and splash pad for the kids.  Saturday we just hung around and ate out at the local golf course at Champion’s Bistro.  They make the best nacho plate I’ve ever eaten. I had it in January and had to try it again.  Just as good as before.  We left Sunday and had a pleasant drive home.  No one, and I mean no one wears a mask in north Louisiana.  Such a shame. Beautiful country, though.

Mandatory Evacuation

  August 26, 2020 Mandatory evacuation for Hurricane Laura... Talk about leaving in a hurry!  Packed up a four-year old grandchild, headed down the road to Lampasas, Texas, with no provisions and no idea what we were doing. And the adventure began.  Arrived at a campground called  Our Friends Campground.  They were gracious and helped us out so much.  Especially as we were leaving on the Saturday after we arrived, backing up the SUV to hook up, and realized someone had stolen our hitch.  (Not at the campground - probably WalMart.)  So, off we go, again, but this time with two grandchildren (2 and 4) and head off to find a new hitch.  A seven-hour trip ended up taking 13 hours.  Needless to say, I wasn't sure I was made out for this camping life.  We had already run out of gas and lost the camper keys on the way home from picking up the camper.  So, we get home to no power, no water, almost no way to get down the streets.  ...

May 28 - 30, 2021 This is our second military campground.  The spots were so small that some RV's couldn't back in.  The grandkids came with us.  But, we had a little boy that would not leave our campground and truly ruined the experience for us.  The campground was well kept, but the bathrooms left something to be desired.  There was a logging competition going on Saturday, and that was interesting.  The lake and beach were great with a bounce pillow and a great playground.  We were able to walk with the grandkids and get ice cream and look at the boats.  I don't know if I'd go back because of the closeness of the sites.
