Vacation: Camping at Walton

The cool iron bridge going over the Ohio River.

For this vacation we actually camped more nights than not.

That was a first for us and it was a lot of fun.

We camped two nights on the way down.

The first night we stayed at Oak Creek Campground in Walton, KY.

While we have a list of good campgrounds we've used, we're always looking to add to it.

We know of some we will definitely not camp at again.

This was our first time staying at this campground.

It had lots of shade which is a plus when you're in a tent.

We got cots for this trip.

We've used air mattresses for years but they take up a lot of space.

Yes, that's a bunked cot for the boys. How cool is that?

They worked out really well.

After we set up the tent the boys and I went swimming.

Definitely a nice way to cool off!

Fine camp cuisine.

More luxurious eating.

In case you're wondering... it's a bugle filled with spray cheese.

Something only a teenager would come up with.

I brought my hand pieced sewing project with me.

I only got it out twice so not much got done.

Beautiful tree canopy above our campsite.

There was a creek beside our tent!

We always love that.

Of course we had to explore the creek!

It was full of crawdads.

We tried and tried to catch one.

They were too skilled at hiding...

or it might be that we were not quick enough!

We enjoyed this campground and will definitely add it to the list of good places to stay.

The bathrooms were clean and the staff was friendly.

In the morning we packed everything up and headed to our next campground.
