Destination Riverdale Farm Campground Madison, CT

Today was fun. We arrived at Riverdale farm campground in Connecticut earlier than usual, set up our tent in a shady spot by the small river (E-74) and set off to ride bikes to the beach. The ride was not safe, and we turned around. We drove to the beach which was at Hammonassett State Park. (This state park has a nice grassy area for tents and hot showers.) The sand was rocky, but smelled like a beach! Here is my self-portrait with camera bag and skirt.

The flowers are pretty at the beach just a few feet from the water. We are going to have a sandy tent tonight... Later, two kids are now in the pond "to wash off the sand" at 8 PM. One kid is playing basketball with about six other campers. And I have a coat on!!!
