![]() ![]() We were the only ones out on the water, and it was calm and peaceful. We also kayaked there, along some of the inlets of Deep Creek. This park is very flat and has huge campsites, surrounded by tall trees. Mid-week, we moved to Belle Isle State Park on the eastern side of the state, along the Rappahannock River, just before it feeds into the Chesapeake Bay. Turtles lined up on the logs, warming in the sun It was very windy the day we went kayaking, but we paddled along the edges of the lake (better for seeing wildlife) and spotted lots of turtles and a Great Blue Heron. We enjoyed a short hike along the lakeshore and went kayaking out on the small lake. Hilly campground – we could see the lake through the trees We had a lovely site overlooking the water. Our first stop was Bear Creek Lake State Park, west of Richmond, in the foothills. We took our pop-up camper down to Virginia and stayed in two beautiful (and very different) state parks, with perfect weather. You may have noticed I skipped last week’s Monday post because … we were on vacation! This was our first week-long trip since 2019 and our first camping trip of the year, and we had a wonderful time. ![]()
