We hung around our campsite pretty much all day. The kids thoroughly enjoyed playing with lots of other kids in the forest and playground behind our trailer. We hardly saw them all day.
Brock and I used the quiet time to try to lay out the rest of our route and a tentative timeline.
In the afternoon, we went driving through the park (it's huge) and ended up at a trailhead parking lot where we went for a short family hike. The weather was perfect and the scenery was really beautiful. We went through some open grassy fields, but most of the trail was pretty thickly treed.

When we got back to the trailer, the kids couldn't wait to get back to the playground and spend more time with their new friends. They played Lava Monster, Traffic Jam, and Charades. They stayed there until we called them back for a very late dinner, after 8 pm.
By the way, I'm thankful to be feeling much better today. I kinda hate that in the last eight and a half months traveling with our family of six, we've gotten away with zero doctor appointments and the one to break our streak was me. :o)
