Have any of you read the reviews for the "new" KOA? I've seen in several different review sites that many campsites have been changed to RV sites and more campsites have been added but are now closer together... Know anything about this?

Casey told me you can't reserve in the back area for 2021. We think this part of the plan to make them RV spots.

We shall learn more next week.

Well crap. I got a call from the KOA asking me if I still intended to show up, THIS WEEK. They some how screwed up my reservation, so I no longer have a spot.

Sooooooo, anybody have a tent spot I can share?

How the heck did they mess that up? You should have an email with your reservation.

We are staying in a cabin so I can't help. I know you don't take up much room...

The weather is looking pretty good. Mid to upper 70's. Some 'stray' afternoon and PM thunderstorms. Mostly cloudy during the day.

We appear to have a weather pattern developing for monsoon activity. It has been pretty sketchy that we'll get any real monsoon weather this month.

We need the rain. I'm in the opposite corner of the state and it's just been muggy and really hot, but little rain.

OK guys, I left early. I’m not feeling well (dysthymia) and need to get away. Being around others has the tendency to make me feel worse. It was nice to see y’all again.
