However I&#8217;m still at campsite 15 which is a long way from the river. I wanted to move to a closer site but the campground has had people in line to get a site everyday and I figured I wouldn&#8217;t try to move yet. Maybe after Christmas one of the river sites will become available, then I&#8217;ll work out a shuttle and try paddling since it&#8217;s going to be freezing for a few days anyway.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-family: georgia; font-size: large;\">It looks like we will only have 3 cold days&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-family: georgia; font-size: large;\">and then we will warmup next week back to near 80<\/span><b><sup><span face=\"&quot;Arial Narrow&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\" style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Comic Sans MS&quot;; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;\">o<\/span><\/sup><\/b><span style=\"font-family: georgia; font-size: large;\">F with lows in the 60&#8217;s.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bcpoa.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/HighlandsHammock3.jpg\" style=\"clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"480\" data-original-width=\"640\" height=\"240\" src=\"https:\/\/bcpoa.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/HighlandsHammock3-300x225.jpg\" width=\"320\"\/><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;\">It&#8217;s been very nice temperature for doing biking (Cardiac Rehab). I&#8217;ve paddled two more days on the winding paths for about 32 miles&nbsp; through the Fish Hawk Ranch housing development. A few of the creek crossing bridges are still closed from the hurricane a couple of months ago.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;\">One good thing about this campground is the internet service from my tethered&nbsp;cell phone. It is fast and always working. Also, we are only about 5 miles from all the tall TV towers so we get great TV service.
