Magnus Moves! Massachusetts and back, Day 14

 7/22 Monday at West Thompson Lake

 
This is an almost perfect little COE park. Sites are huge and roomy. Big playground and restroom in the middle, and the shower was large and had a locking door.  Only one shower in each end of the bathhouse (men/women), but with only 20 or so campsites and half of those for RVs, plenty.  Lots and lots of trails, fairly well marked. (Molly and I only got lost once, because the "Lost Trail" crossed itself. Weird)  The host was very, very nice. They lock the gates at 9pm; if you return after 9pm, you have to part by the overflow parking at the basketball goal and walk to your site. Which isn't very far. 

On Sunday we'd camped in site 2 which was right next to the restroom. It had no starlink reception (big trees). On Monday we moved to site 10, which was next to the overflow parking and just a short walk from the restroom. And it had even less than no starlink reception. But our cell phones worked fine, so we had hotspot to watch TV.

 

 

 

Not that we spent much time watching TV.  On Sunday we went to see the family and ate dinner with them, getting home at about 8:30   I believe that was the night we ate at 99 restaurants, a well-known chain of family restaurants in the Boston area .

One thing I have to say about 99 restaurants, they are extremely kid friendly.  They served bowls of popcorn for appetizer, then brought out a complementary ice cream sandwich for dessert.  For the kids only, sad to say.  And unfortunately, all three kids liked their ice cream sandwich.  So we adults didn't get any.

I had seafood chowder and a mediocre salad.  The chowder was okay.
