We got an early start to the day today, leaving the Missouri Conservation Dept's Boat Ramp/campsite at Roberts Bluff, Missouri at 0615 hours.
Driving was very tiring as it was a very windy day, and we were fighting winds from the West and Southwest all morning!
By 1300 we were almost done setting up camp at the Sylvan Park campground near Wilson Lake. It is a Corps of Engineers campground, and I realized as I drove into it that I had been here before! Yep, August of 2021 as I was headed home from a previous trip to the Eastern half of the country, the really humid half as I had selectively forgotten it seems.
Today was damn hot, sunny though only with a relative humidity of 39%, which beats me almost 95% humidity we experienced in Missouri yesterday! The RV thermometer was showing an outside temperature of 100° F.
We plugged into shore power, a major factor in picking a COE site for today, and spent the rest of the afternoon in AC comfort inside the RV. It did take quite a while to cool down the inside of the RV though, as it had been showing a temperature of 85°F when we started setting up camp.
While we waited for the RV to cool down, we both took cooling outdoor showers beside the RV after I had hooked up the campsite water faucet.
Tomorrow, Colorado and home!
