Fool's Hollow Lake
We had a great time at Fool's Hollow Lake. We went up on Saturday and were lucky enough to get a spot in the Redhead Loop, #13. We were just 30 feet from the lake with an incredible view. The first day we had quite a bit of wind, but it was nice in the evening. We went and saw Smokey the Bear at the amphitheater. I didn't know Smokey was based upon a real bear that was found 65 years ago in a tree after a forest fire.
The next day we had to run to urgent care in town. Lexi had strep throat. As we were walking into the facility she told us, "this isn't how I planned my day". Our comment was "really, we didn't want to spend the 3 hours or the money either!"
There wasn't as much wind the next day and the result in the evening should be titled "invasion of the bugs". We are talking about, what felt like thousands of bugs. Lets just say we wrote a "to-bring" list for our next trip in the trailer. The items listed are: bug spray, fly swatters, Off, dust buster (to suck up the bugs by the lights) and fly strips. We tried to fish at night but it was impossible to breath through an open mouth without getting a mouthful of bugs.

All in all, we had a great time.
