Activities? Meaning what in the world can you do here?
Well ..... we don't have rides or slides but we do have picnic tables.
This really is a rustic area. Most people come here to fish the ponds and the river for the day. In the warmer
months people used to come in and camp overnight. The hardcore cat-fishermen would be up all night with bug nets on
their heads and Art Bell on the radio in little pools of lantern light here and there. There is quite a bit of birdwatching
and people on bikes roaming about. And lately I've seen some come in on horseback. I kind of like that. Some
just come and sit about and smoke and yuk it up with us for a few hours in the bait house. It stays pretty quiet as
we neither want nor encourage any off-road vehicles or dirt bikes. It is mostly folks coming down to spend some time on the
river before it's all gone and either developed or cordoned off from access by selfish landowners and conservationist
urbanites that want to preserve and reserve the river from everyone but themselves. A bit of a back-water, really.
