Enjoying the Snow at Claytor Lake State Park (VA) March 6-7, 2014

The Place

Claytor Lake State Park is an absolutely beautiful, well maintained park along a lovely mountain lake.  The campgrounds are connected to the close by swimming and boating areas of the lake by trails and paved paths.  We encountered a small herd of 7 deer on our walk through the park.

The Adventure

We woke up in the morning to find that it had started snowing during the night.  There is something very peaceful about a lovely snow in the mountains.  A visit to the Weather Channel app and a conversation with the ranger reassured us that the storm would only bring us a few inches and would end before lunch.  So we played in the snow, did some projects around the motor home and got under way when it stopped.
