There were a few people swimming but most went back to the AC campers to get out of the heat. There was alot of traffic on the water...Jet Ski's & boats, they had 3 different bass fishing tournaments in those 2 days ! In the shed across from our campsite they were having a 2day HAM Radio Club meeting, they had antenna's & computers & gear set up everywhere !

Looks like a great place to take the family and hang out.

Great stuff buddy, I haven't been camping for quite some time now, think the last time was when we were woken by a bear snorting just outside our tent.....that's always interesting !!!!

Great stuff ! Looks like a great time was had by all. Enjoy your states freedoms, in my wonderfull state, we are not allowed to carry/have firearms in our state parks, unless it is during hunting seasons & you have ALL the proper permits. Yes, i have a CCW licence, it makes no difference. I have argued this with the park rangers & park police until i am blue in the face, to no avail. Right on my permit, it says, concealed carry in the state of NY, not valid in NY City unless approved by the police commissioner of that city. It says NOTHING about state parks. I can't wait to move out of this state when we retire.

Nope...They had 3 Bass Tournaments & it was had to fish off the bank with all the Bass boats trolling the banks ! I also think the Cats are just now getting off the nest...should be some good cat fishing this weekend !
