Monday: We rented a car and drove to Lake Cumberland to pick up our van. Patty and Paul had driven it there from Florida for us. Norm and Sue came with us. It was a very pleasant drive because there was very little traffic. We had reserved the car for 11:00 and it was 6:30 before we got back to Kentucky Dam State Park. We had dinner at the lodge before returning to our boats. It took up most of the day to get the car.
Tuesday: Sue and I drove around for two hours trying to find a laundromat. We used the GPS. It didn't really help much. The nearest one, according to GPS, didn't exist. The second closest one, was pretty run down and dirty. So, we had seen one Sunday night when we went out to dinner at Patti's 1880 Settlement. We drove to Patti's, but saw no laundromat. We drove back to the park. We asked at the lodge if they knew of a laundromat and they gave us directions for one in Calvert City. We found that one and finally managed to get our clothes clean. What an ordeal.
Wednesday: Today we checked out the campground at the park. Our children are planning to come here to camp and visit us. The campground looked nice, electric and water at each space, nice looking restrooms and showers, newer looking playground equipment for the kids, plenty of trees and the grass had been recently cut. We are so looking forward to them visiting. I spent the rest of the day embroidering prayer flags for when Gina and her team climb Mt. Adams later in July. It's still really hot and muggy. The poor air conditioner struggles all day long to keep the boat at 86 degrees. At night, though, it gets comfortable so that we can sleep.
