Oscar Scherer SP (Jan 3-9)

We had a nice trip down after closing the house for our 2 1/2 month trip. Traffic was not bad and the 95 miles quite pleasant. We got set up, met, and talked to a nice couple who summer not to far from us up north. Joan was able to get her Doberman fix with their nice one.

Tuesday - We launched the kayaks by the Ranger Station and fished for awhile. Joan had one on, but lost it while John managed a few ladyfish. They are not good to eat, so all were released. It was mostly cloudy, but nice, and not too windy.

Wednesday - Today was mostly a down day, except for a little unsuccessful fishing, with our new friend Tom, in the creek that runs thru the park. In the evening, we enjoyed authentic Appalachian music and ice cream down in the nature center.

Thursday - There was quite heavy rain during the night and through the morning. We too the opportunity to make a Walmart trip and get necessary items, then joined many in the campground for a pancake breakfast put on by campground volunteers at the Nature Center. It was very nice.

Friday - Today we went to Casperson Park south of Venice. We told out friends, Tom and Jane about the park and decided to meet them there. We fished a little, but caught nothing, but we enjoyed talking and just walking around.

Saturday - We enjoyed an early dinner at Pop's on the Intercoastal Waterway with Tom and Jane and watched the Colts get beat by NY at our place.

Sunday - In the morning we went to the Nature Center for a very nice worship service that was led by the same couple who did the music program on Wednesday evening.
