Look at this. sigh. seriously cute. *Gypsy Gene* as I spied her looking up from the lake at Natchez State Park. She’s so pretty! I am still caught in the sway of emotion between “OMG what have I done!” (in purchasing the RV and years of payments) and the excitement of “YEAH Buddy!” accompanied by endless hours of imagining… where next?! WE are gonna have a GOOD time together! So…Camp. Beautiful camp ground here at Natchez. Period. Natchez State Park is not only famous for the largest bass caught in Mississippi some year or other but actual *wild* wildlife. I saw so many deer, does with bambi…yeah…bambi spotted wobbly babies… so precious. And all quickly hustled into the green by the mommas before I could raise a camera. Also wild turkeys equally shy and timber rattle snakes who seemed to prefer to cross warm camp roads after dark! (Did you know timber rattlers only travel about 3 miles max from their birth den?) There are cabins and a more primitive camp loop, a lovely lake and hiking trails from where you can identify various trees mushrooms spiders and flora if you are into that. I am. Campfires in the pits are allowed and there is plenty of deadfall & fat pine fire starters to be found along the hiking trails. Each site in the B loop has a lovely pad, picnic table and grill, electric and water (no dump although there is one near the exit), many have a direct path to the lake as seen above. Totally enjoyed a few days here, the park was fairly empty the last week of August, shhhhh just the music of frogs and katydids, the flashing of lightning bugs made me feel like a wonder eyed kid again. Speaking of kids, there is a nice kid’s play area near the office. Enjoy! Cheers!
