Did a one nighter at our favorite spot at New Melones!!
Only six campers in the entire campground because there were no boaters camping over the weekend. The Parks closed down the lake to boaters due to the invasive mussels. Normally there are a couple of boaters that camp overnight in the area we like to camp; they always pick the pull-throughs. Since they weren't there, the campground was the quietest we have experienced.
We did our favorite hike along the shore and marveled at how still the water looked and how quiet the lake was too!
We entertained ourselves in the evening with making pomanders for Christmas. Got two done, more to go!
Finished our overnight stay with a hike down to the picnic table on the Cougar Point Trail. We almost always find some thing interesting down at the point. This looks like a bird carcass.
