[Texas Clodhopper]

Yes....a fantastic site! And the table seats four for "drinks" too!

Dang...this gets better and better. I've never stayed in a park that provides cocktails!!!

Spent some time with a chainsaw and although we still have a good distance to go, I believe it's got potential!

First pic is the view from Site 14, looking East. Pictures 2&3 are from Site 13, looking South. Each picture was taken from where you would be if you were sitting under your extended awning.

There is quite a bit of haze in the air today, not sure where that's coming from. We had a lot of smoke from Canada last week, but most of it has dissipated.

Nice...do you process that wood for the fire pits ? What kind of trees are they ? And if you do split the wood, you must be in awesome shape...I recently split about a cord (with a splitter of course) and it wiped me out Blessings

Yes, we process all the wood here. It's a combination of several species of Oak, some Pine, Poplar and whatever else we bump into. It falls down faster than I can cut it.

Awesome shape? lol, not in about 40 years. Two years ago I was in OK shape, today, not so much. Haven't been working as much as I was when we started the park, and that with too much beer, has made sure that awesome has left the building.

Too much beer? Exactly how much beer is too much?

Too much beer? Exactly how much beer is too much?

In my case, about 40lbs!

Why aren’t you using US currency?

Ha! You may be on to something there Bill!

Hey...where are the mods? This thread has gotten way off-topic! There is no way my shape or Jim's shape is related to "building a small rv park". Don't forget, round is a shape.

Have a guest at the park that is an avid pickle ball player. He's trying to convinced me that it would be a good idea to install a court, but I'm skeptical. Would a small park with only 13 sites actually find a pickle ball court to be advantageous?

 

[Neal]

I would advise against it. You have a small bit of land that is about nature and peaceful. Pickleball is a noisy sport with paddles smacking plastic balls. I felt sorry for the Prevost at Hearthside Grove parked in the site right next to the courts. Most of us PB players know not to be parked next to courts.

 

[Richpatty]

I agree with Neal. Each park has its draw and reason why a person would go there. And yours (IMHO) is to get away from it all, enjoy the silence and nature. Not sure Pickleball fits in that. And what if the Pickleball fad fades? You will have pavement to figure out what to do with.

My 2 cents...

I really enjoyed going to camp growing up so any of those activities such as archery, canoeing, fishing, etc would be fun. Keep it as a nature camp.
