Back in the Dirt

We don't typically make reservations for one-nighters when we're RVing.  We call our first choice campground when we start driving in the AM, see if there's room at the inn - or in our case, the campground.  We're usually lucky but sometimes not.  Yesterday was a not.

Original choice a was a motel/CG in Fort Morgan, CO: full up.

Next option down the road was Brush, CO, a municipal park: full up.

Next option was a piss-ant 'campground' in someone's back yard, near Sterling, CO, gave 'em a call: "Yeah, we have a space for you, 50 amp, no water or sewer, back in the dirt."  Back in the dirt?  What the hell, let's go for it.

So, here we are, back in the dirt.  $42/night.  Don't care about the cost, any port in a storm.  Got power so all appliances work.  Only one night.  Cool and dry in our RV, A/C on.  Life is good.

Artie tucked himself in by the fireplace yesterday morning, one ear sticking straight up.
