Friday was a really nice day, but still cool. We had a lazy morning, then drove the Jeep up the same road we walked yesterday only we went up past the waterfall to see if we could find the lake. It was not a difficult drive but had some challenging rock climbing. We stopped along two different off-road trails to see if we could find the lake with no luck but the vista is beautiful as are the flowers. After lunch, John took off fishing from the kayak and I got the camera out, along with the owners manual and took a walk just to find flowers and waterfalls to photograph.
Friday evening was our foray into the Food and Wine Festival. We had dinner at the East End Bistro with wine from Krupp Brothers in CA. The interesting thing about these pairings was that the chef and his wife first tasted the wines and then determined what food would best go with them. And it worked really well. We had a lobster salad, bruschetta made with figs, prosciutto and goat cheese, roasted duck breast, smoked pork belly and for desert a chocolate stout cupcake. Each course had a different wine plus we drank a bonus wine before and after the meal. Our table sat people from CO, FL, CT and TX. It was a delightful evening.
Today we slept in (wonder why?), fished, short hikes, cleaned, filled water tank, and enjoyed the campground. John even built a rip-roaring fire for the evening. We have really enjoyed this area and this lovely campground!!
