Boondocking

 

To get to the Lake of the Prairies, is more than a day’s drive so we booked a boondocking site.

Boondockers Welcome is a web-site you join and similar to Air BnB, people can post their places as available spots for a night’s stay and you book them in advance.  As the definition of boondocking implies, there is no charge (unless perhaps they offer services such as power and water).

This was our first experience with boondockers – out in the pasture.  We arrived just before sunset, in time to enjoy our burgers and sitting outside with no wind, no mosquitoes and just the sounds of nature (and maybe a few vehicles going by on the highway a mile away). 

In the morning it was hard to leave such a quiet peaceful place, but the fish are calling so on we go.
