We landed this afternoon at Ely KOA Journey, pretty much right in the middle of Nevada, elevation, 6500 ft. This is just a stop-over for a night, but it really is a nice campground. We plan to drive around this after and check out the town.
From here we're heading north to Idaho. Our first stop is a place called Anderson Camp. We plan to spend a couple of days there so we can check out Shoshone Falls and what's left of Twin Falls

Since there were no membership campgrounds alone my route through Vermont, we looked at other options. (I typed in "campgrounds along Route 9 in Vermont" on Google Maps) I reserved a couple of nights several months ahead of time and had to mail a check because they don't accept credit. It seemed like a hassle, but I'm glad that I did. We arrived at the campground in the early afternoon and were shown which site was ours. It an excellent site so I don't mind that I didn't pick it. I'm sure I could have changed if I wanted to. First of all, I have never been in a campground where the owners took so much pride in it. Every campsite was nice, there are acres of green grass and three ponds to canoe in. All of the sites are very well maintained as well as all of the roads. The tent sites were secluded but with views over-looking the ponds. Each one having both a garbage and a recycling can all with very nice picnic tables and fire rings. The lodge is used for showers and bathrooms. None of the RV sites have septic, but there is a free dump station. The campground is located pretty much at the summit of route 9 next to a ski resort and surrounded by forest. The owners have made walking trails and built bridges and even an RC track and obstacle course. I just can't say enough how beautiful and well maintained this campground is.
We were there for just two nights so we just had time to check out the local towns, parks, historic sites, and covered bridges. Vermont is beautiful, worth spending more time here. Oh and we bought some Vermont maple syrup.
