A Day At The River 10/11/2020

 Sorry, this is not a traditional River Day post, but I was putzing around the River today and took a few pics I thought I'd share.  

I started out on Royal Road by the bridges from Raleigh County into Fayette County.  It was a warm fall day with intermittent rain (didn't bother me). 

 



From here I decided to visit the "birthplace" of National River Day - the camp at Terry Beach.  All in all a pretty sad sight.  Between the local's places and the condition of the camp, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of maintenance going on.  

At the camp, everything was grown up, and the yard was deeply gouged and eroded from the River.  It was pretty obvious that there's not been anyone using the place.  The good part of that is that no one has destroyed it either.

Even though things were pretty run down, it was pretty nostalgic visiting.  And I'm sure I will again.
