Well this is a story to tell. We arrived here during an “unprecedented” heat wave in the area. This was the only campsite we did not have any electricity. When we booked it we had no idea that the weather would be so hot. 38C during the day, 28C at night.

Our first night was a challenge. The dogs were HOT, as were we. At 3:00 I had to bring Leia outside to cool down. I slept outside with her for an hour before we went back inside. Stephanie, the dogs and I all slept in separate areas trying to stay cool. Before we went to bed we decided we needed electricity and AC. The estimated temperature was 31C (humid 41C) during the day and 27 at night.

We had researched the local State Parks in the area and found that Killens State Park, DE had an electric site available. But miraculously Site 13 in this park became available….along with full service….including electricity. The $45 upgrade was worth every penny. The dogs spent the afternoon cooling down, as did we.
