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

Burns Park is a huge park right off the 40 in North Little Rock. It features sports venues which include baseball, softball, tennis, golf, disc golf, and soccer. There are bike and hiking trails and even a BMX track. Then, of course, there is a campground. The campground is very nice, with large paved sites. Some with full hookups some without. Site 15 is the only pull-through. We pulled in without a reservation and the camp host helped pick out a site that would work best for us. He figured that we needed a 50 amp full hookup site and he had the perfect site for us. Only it shared a 50/30 service with a 5th-wheel that was there full time. He was going to have her plug into the 30 so that we could have the 50, but we opted for a 50 amp site without septic as we were only there for one night and didn't need to dump. The owner of the 5th-wheel came out and insisted that it was no problem for her to switch. You meet the nicest people while camping. Overall the campground was really nice, heavily treed and felt like a campground. It's a great $30 a night campground right off the freeway, but not so close that you could hear it.
We did run into town and did some shopping and had dinner. It was nice to be back in civilization after spending the previous two weeks in the middle of nowhere. I would love to go back and visit the Maritime Museum there, but we didn't have enough time. Maybe next time through we will stay longer.
