Georgia on my…Magnus? Day 23

Thursday, March 5
Add to trip lessons learned: on multi-night stays, always empty the coffeepot while doing dishes. Put it in Ed's cup if needed. I forgot and it overflowed, but only a little.

Goodbye, lovely campsite by the lake!

 

 

 

Our last stop for the trip was the Shreveport/Bossier City KOA. It was okay, for a KOA. A little litter cleanup would have helped.  The dog parks were okay; there was a very nice playground.

It wasn’t crowded at all, on a Thursday of course.  There was a small section of what appeared to be seasonal or permanent resident sites. But we had site 34, a nice, big pull-thru site with a patio. I’m sure I paid through the nose for it. Starlink reception was good. The sites were very close together, as usual.


 

Are those people in the window? 

  Zooming in... 

  

They had a little pond (mosquito breeding facility) in the back with promise of some good birding in season. At the time, it was mostly robins and a thrasher. There were lots of big pines back there, too.

They had a double dog park—big and small with a connecting gate. Molly was not in mood for ball at first. We took a walk, then she had to check out the small dog section, so I opened the connecting gate and let her through.  Then she played ball. Good girl!

If I ever plan on stopping here on the way out, remember to check on charcoal grill fires. They don’t allow campfires, at all, but we didn’t ask about our charcoal grill.

I did notice that Bossier City’s Murrell’s restaurant closed about 7 years ago. Sad.
