Red Bluff NF Campground; Davisville, MO: This morning dawned sunny and beautiful. Really chilly. After showering and dressing I had to clean up a mess under the kitchen sink. Apparently, during the hot days while in storage, a can of rug cleaner ruptured and leaked all over. This turned into a thick, nasty, greasy mess. It took a while, but we got it all cleaned up and then I made a big breakfast which we devoured. After that we sat outside for a while reading our books and relaxing. Then headed down to the Davisville General Store which now has a new owner. Her name is Kerry Sue and she has done a great job cleaning the place up and turning it around. She even serves breakfast and lunch daily. After talking with her for a while, we drove back to Red Bluff and filled up our jugs with water and checked out the lower campground. Came back and filled up our water tank. Had a few visitors—three guys on Harleys and a couple of other people stopping to check out the beautiful view. Burgers for dinner and another fire.
