One of the best luxuries of glamping is having running water for cleaning, cooking, and flushing. Unlike in your sticks and bricks home, there is no permanent sewer drain. So all the water you use must be stored in tanks until you have sewer hook-ups to drain them. Done correctly, this is not too bad of a job. Done incorrectly, it can be a nasty, smelly, and dirty job.
We got the PDL or pedal drive kayaks because I have tried to fish with a paddle in my had and I didn’t like it. It is much easier to fish when you have both hands free. And if it is windy or there is current, you have to be constantly paddling without the pedal drives.
There was one wild 8 foot alligator who hangs out just across the fence from the ones in the ranch. I think they are planning a jail break. It is possible he was one who escaped during hurricane Katrina.
I have added a new map to our homepage. In addition to our “States” map, we now have a “campgrounds visited” map. Now you can check out the RV parks, Harvest Hosts, and other places we’ve camped at if you happen to be looking for campgrounds in a certain area. It is an interactive map, if you click on the pin’s, it will tell you more about that location.
We spent 2 nights boondocking at Bass Pro Shops in Denham Springs, Louisiana. It’s a beautiful Bass Pro Shops and all the people working there were very nice. They have a nice lake between highway 12 and the Bass Pro Shops that they test boat motors in.
In Louisiana where we boondocked at a harvest host. We stayed at the Crying Eagle Brewing Company.
They have had a few flavors take off and they can’t keep up with the demand. You can see their flavors in their web site. They have recently added a couple new tanks and will be adding a new location soon.
As they grow the Crying Eagle will soon start buying their grain in bulk. The grain bin pictured below is where it will be delivered and stored. Then it will be fed into the mill room where it will be ground up.
