Day 55 – Aug 30 Played in the Sand dunes, had power problems when we returned, Rosalie got another badge

Today was play in the sand day. It was a great deal of work to play in the sand for a few hours.

The dunes themselves are about a ¾ of a mile hike from the parking lot. So we packed up a camp chair, ground cover, large umbrella, snacks, water onto a couple of rented sand sleds ( basically snow boards).

After a couple of hours playing in the sand we had a hard hike back to the truck, but it was an experience that we would not have missed.

We stopped in at the visitors center where Rosalie managed to get herself another junior ranger badge at the sand dunes park, number 4.

When we returned to the rv park we found we had power problems. After a bit of troubleshooting we found the entire half of the park had a voltage reading from the neutral to ground, generally not a good thing. So, we moved down to the good side of the park. Not fun to move like that but necessary.
