Another long ass drive today starting at 6:30 AM in Hot Springs AR across Arkansas and Oklahoma and into the Texas panhandle 583 miles (ten hours almost non-stop) to this beautiful campsite on Lake Meredith just north of Amarillo TX. There were some severe thunderstorms in the South but we managed to stay just ahead of them and only had some mild rain in the morning on our drive.
We are camped at the Sanford Yakes campground in Lake Meredith National Recreation Area. There are many campgrounds around the lake and most sites are free and first come first serve. Our site is in a loop of about 50 campsites and maybe a quarter of them are occupied. Flat open site with two picnic tables, trash cans, charcoal grill, and fire ring plus a sunshade. The loop has a dumpster and four unisex hot showers at ther bathrooms as well as water and a nearby dump station. Two bars Verizon service. Absolutely beautiful free site! Totally worth the drive. Found it on YouTube!
Not a bad sunset either!
