NICODEMUS.

Day 370 – We spent the morning hanging out and relaxing in the RV. After lunch we took a drive, first to Nicodemus National Historic Site, and then we drove gravel farm roads around the opposite side of the Reservoir, the side across from our campground.

KIRWIN NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE.

Day 369 – It wasn’t too windy today, high of 77 degrees, partly sunny. MUCH better than yesterday. We slept in this morning and spent the morning doing some chores, and Rob put the Kansas sticker on our travel map on the RV. After lunch we went out to Kirwin NWR, 40 minutes north of this campground.

TRAVEL DAY

From: Merritt Reservoir State Recreation Area, West Beed’s Campground, southwest of Valentine, NE.

To: Webster State Park, Hilltop Campground, Stockton, Kansas.

Day 368 – Boy, 4:30 a.m. came too quickly this morning. We dragged ourselves out of bed. It was pitch dark out, but at least it wasn’t windy – yet. We were glad we did the dumping of tanks, throwing out of trash, and adding fresh water last night. A few less things to do. The girls were still sleeping when we got up. Usually, they’re the ones who get us up in the morning – climbing all over us in bed, or jumping from their shelves near the ceiling to the bed, or just running back and forth through the RV like a herd of elephants. When Rob put their food dishes down for them to eat breakfast, they weren’t showing much interest; they still had part of last night’s dinner left.
