Ginger booked us this very nice campsite in the Big Bay public use area on Table Rock Lake. The area was very clean the facilities good and the views from the lake shore magnificent.

All this with the magnificent backdrop of the hills around Table Rock Lake.
Ginger sat in the shade and read, while I threw lures at non-existent fish, stood up to my chest in the warm water of the lake throwing lures at non-existent fish, and just floated around on the lake. It was a very nice way to spend time on a day when temperatures were in the upper nineties.

We decided to invest in a weather alert radio, and it proved very useful, as a set of massive thunderstorms swept through the area. It was a good test of the tent too, with one-and-a-half inches of rain.
We were up early and ventured down to the lakeside to see the sunrise. Fortunately the water was still very warm as I had to wade in up to my waist to get these pictures of two fishermen who were quietly trolling the lake.

In the early morning the water was still and calm providing some excellent reflections.
