Campgrounds,

They are never boring. Yesterday at 5 and 6am, 2 separate folks opened their car doors before deactivating the alarm. Ooooops! So, much for being quiet between 10pm and 8am. I felt worse for the guy at 5am, he was really struggling to get it turned off. I was awake, but some weren't.

This morning around 3:15am, a car rolled on the interstate and hit a power pole. I heard a huge Snap and like metal bending under pressure. 20 minutes later, ALL of the 911 services are at the entrance with lights going. It sounded like a big branch broke and landed on somebody's rv awning, so I figure somebody got hurt too. I'm awake now, might as well walked out to the entrance to see what was going on and it turned out that the power line was down feeding the park. This morning, as I'm pulling out, I saw the line is still down and look to my left and see what snapped. It was the power pole itself, right in half. The transformer is laying on the ground. Picture of damages!



Off to my next adventure!
