As we were
traveling from Venago to our next stop we unexpectedly had to stop at the Chevy
dealership in Hays, KS because we discovered the cause of our problems on the
truck periodically not starting after a fill up. This time Gary actually saw the event while
it was happening.
The fuel
filter housing had a crack in it and was actually spewing diesel out on
occasion.
The
dealership had the part in stock, replaced it and we were back on the road
quickly. However, by then it was obvious to us we would not make our
destination for the evening and we decided to spend the night at a campground
at Ellis, KS.
We only
spent one night at this small campground, but the view was spectacular out our
back window.
This is a
small city park. There are plenty of
camping signs coming into town to show you the way in.
It is an
honor system type park and our rate with free wi-fi and full hook-ups was $20. The site #3 was an easy in and out, shaded
pull-through.
Had we had
more time in our schedule we would have stayed another day or two just to
explore the area.
Because it
is a city park we didn’t chance breaking any regulations by flying the
quadcopter. We did, however, go for a
stroll after we set up for the day, along the river edge for a while, including
sitting on the nice dock and just watching the river flow by. Of course we had
our camera at hand and took a few photos.
All in all
it was a pleasant campground and we would definitely do an overnight visit
there again.
