Hey campers! It is fall right now, and you know what that means-the leaves are changing colors! A great place to head out to right now is Interstate State Park! Interstate Park is located right off the St Croix River, in St Croix Falls, Wisconsin. This State park is 298 acres of beautiful nature! It is surrounded by big, beautiful trees. There are bright red, orange, pink, and gold leaves everywhere you look at Interstate right now. Think of how beautiful that would be! You will see many different animals such as, deer, squirrels, birds, etc. You will hear the great sounds of nature. The rushing of the river, the chirping of the birds, and at the same time the peaceful quiet! Every day you will smell the great smell of the great outdoors! Doesn’t this sound beautiful!

            While enjoying all of the sights, sounds, and smells, there are plenty of adventurous things to do! You can go hiking, which is one of my favorite things to do! There are many different hiking trails away from the river, and along the river. Don't forget to bring water, and snacks for the hiking trip! If you are brave enough you can climb the cliffs of the St Croix River. I think that would be kind of scary, but it would definitely be an adventure! If you would rather be on the river than walking along next to it, you can go canoeing, or kayaking. You can also go on an excursion boat! You should definitely try all of these activities out for a fun adventurous time! Don’t forget to do the basic fun things of camping too!

            I have been to this campground twice. Each time I have had a blast! Going hiking, and going on the river was so much fun! I would love to go to Interstate State Park again! I hope you go, and enjoy everything too; from the sights to the adventures! Oh…How I love to go camping!



           

It's time to Relax!

Hey campers! Ready to go camping!? How about to Rice Lake State Park? Rice Lake State Park is located south of the Twin Cities. Rice Lake is a wetland area, with 1,071 acres. Rice Lake has many trees and wild flowers. There are a large number of birds at this campground because of the marshes, and the lake. The different types of birds range from woodpeckers, geese, ducks, swans, and more.

            At Rice Lake State Park, you can do a variety of different things that have to do with nature. You can go canoeing on the lake. You can take pictures of the different flowers. If you love looking for different types of birds, you can go bird watching. You can take a nice stroll in the park. One of the reasons I liked this campground is because you can just relax with your family! You can do all the basic fun things of camping here. There is time in the day to play games with your family. You can build a fire, and sing songs around it, or just sit around it relaxing.  At night, you can look up at all the beautiful stars, and try to figure out the constellations.  In the morning, you can wake up to the dew from the lake, and the fresh smell of the outdoors! I love the fresh smell of the outdoors!

            I liked camping at Rice Lake. It is a lot of fun to go somewhere you know you will be able to spend a lot of time with your family.  Once in a while it is fun to go camping where it is not very busy! You can just sit back, and enjoy every minute of it! Oh…How I love to go camping!
