Joe Pool... Wont be going back to Lloyd Park, SCARY!whereabouts?
stumps galore...
lake fork?
What lake is this?
the campground or the lake on that end?Joe Pool... Wont be going back to Lloyd Park, SCARY!
That end of the lake. Lloyd Park sites are actually very good. The waters edge is perfect for small children, it doesn't get deeper than 12 feet. But, with the amount of lumber, debris floating around.. it was scary.the campground or the lake on that end?
haven't been there since prob 2018, but both seemed ok.
remember the ramp/trailer parking/courtesy dock being a pain.
we used to like the st park on the cedar hill side, but it was closed for a while because of ants....and the marina was closed for a long time..
where do you call 'home' lake?
That is so cool! I've never boated through a city before. Sounds funny to say but we have beautiful high mountain lakes, lakes in the desert, and typical medium lakes surrounded by homes......…....it would be pretty cool to head through a downtown area at least ONCE in our lives.We are finally on the boat for the 2022 season here in Chicagoland. Our first day was rainy, 61 degrees, and not a great boat day for the average boater...but we are not average. We spent 2 hours touring the Chicago River.

It brings a different perspective to a city…seeing it from the water. We find it interesting how many buildings actually showcase that side of the building instead of just making “the back of the building” face the water. Here is a pic of a building facing away from the water, but put the river map on the back of the building. The red dot is where you are on the river.That is so cool!

I was in Destin in mid April and I think I might have video of you, thinking you were crazy heading into the Gulf. I was expecting exactly what you’ve shown in the pics here but if it was you, it took three attempts to be brave enough to go through the chop to get into the Gulf. Here’s a still from the video on April 14th, was it you?
