Floated the Buffalo National River Twice Today
We spent our first night in a tent last night and we did pretty well. We have a 12x12 foot family tent for the two of us and it is very roomy. We borrowed a queen size air matress from Scott & Lacey that is about 2 feet tall with built-in electric air pump. It is very comfortable.
Angela fixed us a wonderful breakfast on the fire pit because her Coleman Stove would not work. The camp coffee was the best ever. I think I'm going to enjoy this camping trip.
After breakfast we put in at the Hwy 14 bridge thinking we were going to float about 5 miles of river. After less than two miles we were shocked to be back at camp. So we ate our lunch at camp and headed farther up the river.
We launched our $123.00 8 foot rubber rafts from Sams Club at the Spring Creek access this time. Late this evening we reached camp at Buffalo Point after floating 6.86 miles according the the GPS. We just took our sweet time and enjoyed the scenery and the trip.
We did not get to eat until about 10:00 p.m. but it was an outstanding meal that Angela prepared on the fire pit.
I think I will sleep well tonight.
