TRAP POND STATE PARK

We arrived here last Sunday noon. The Park is located six miles East of the small city of Laurel, Delaware. Laurel is located in this small state in the Southwest corner; about 50 miles south of Dover the capital.
There is one other RV in the park. Will be staying here until
Wednesday AM. The campground is located under tall pine trees. Each large site has water & 50 amp electric. A good location to take it easy which we have. Some household chores done.
Yesterday we took a drive over to the coastal town of Rehoboth Beach. A tourist area on Delaware's Atlantic Coast. Many places to stay in this resort city. 3 outlet malls.
The best part of the drive was through the farming country side. This part of the state is level with sandy loam soil. The farmers are just starting to work their ground. Looks like they raise a lot of corn & cereal grains. The big thing here is broiler fryer operations. The TV news reports they harvest 2,200,00 fryers daily.

Trap pond a beautiful pond filled with clear blue water. Our campsite is just to the right of the picture.
A happy fisherman. Spoke to him from shore. "Fishing is good today". Had a larger bass in the fish well. This was the best picture.
The campground. As you can see no other RVs in this loop.
It's clear & sunny today. Temp is 62 degrees.
We received an Email today from our congressman that 2 of our Washington DC tours have been approved: "The Capitol" & the "Archives".
Tomorrow we make a short move to Greensboro, Maryland for a 2 day stay. Will arrive Friday at Cherryhill RV Park in
College Park, Maryland. Will use this park for our home while touring Washington DC the following 7 days. This is about the only park in the area. A 5 star park but expensive.

Until next time wish you were here. Roger & Pat.

I LEARNED SOMETHING ON THE PHOTOS. IF YOU DOUBLE CLICK A PHOTO THEY WILL ENLARGE!
