Kind of muggy when the breeze dies down π but truth be told when the wind picks up its quite pleasant. It wasn’t as long of a day as expected but fairly busy. Laptop worked well, kept it charged π but I had to move the truck a few times to keep it in the sun for solar power. That said this campsite was quite nice and cool and shady. Plus close to the lake for water or cooling down. Had a few rumbles of thunder β‘ to the east but nothing nearby.
