General Butler State Park, Carrollton, KY

Our first stop; General Butler State Park & Resort. Even with the starkness of winter, the barren trees, the brisk air, and one other camper in the whole park (which is huge), it is still beautiful. We took our furry friends for their morning walk and ran in to 4 white tailed deer. They watched us as if deciding whether or not Sydney would make a nice morning snack. Obviously deer aren't meat eating creatures (are they?) They observed us for a few minutes and eventually went on their way.

The day went well. No traffic issues (however I slept a good bit of the way) and an easy park. We are having difficulty getting the satellite to work and with some football game on tomorrow we may have to move the RV just to get a signal. We'll see.

So far it's been relaxing. Jack cooked terrific pork chops last night and with a salad dinner was awesome. It's going to be hard getting accustomed to cooking for just the two of us though. But we hope to change our eating habits as well as our exercise habits.

Day one down.
