Dale Hollow State Park has its own golf course so John and I played on Tuesday and Thursday. This course is a mountain course, much like ones we have played in Branson with lots of hills, elevated tee boxes or elevated greens, nasty sand traps and a couple of water hazards. We both shot higher scores than on a level course but it was still fun. I like the challenge.
This park has several hiking trails so, despite the heat and high humidity, we chose to take the 6 mile hike. We hadn’t walked 20 minutes and we were wet with sweat. The trails were of moderate difficulty but the signage was mostly hidden by weeds so we had some difficulty finding where to go. One area had lots of downed trees over the trail with unmarked detours around them. I guess I shouldn’t complain, we got lots of exercise and sweated off the fat (ha!).
Thursday night we enjoyed some of nature’s fireworks as a thunderstorm moved through the area. Rain drumming on the roof makes for pleasant sleeping and it did break the heat.
