Fantastic, just a short drive down I-29. Really looking forward to meeting you. We will be on the right side of the road, shortly after you pull into the campground (easy to find, there is only one entrance to the park), near the camp host trailer . Of course, it isn't hard to spot an R-pod. It is a nice park, and we will anticipate a great fall weekend. Feel free to message me if you have any questions about Weston Bend, or other things to do in the area.

How is the flooding situation there at Weston? or is there any flooding at all?

The state park sits high on the river bluff so that will not flood, but the town of Weston sits low so there could be a problem. Right now all the flooding is north of St Joe but all that water has to come south at some point in time. Every day on the news they have shown how towns down stream from St. Joe have been getting ready for the high water. I have not seen anything on what Weston is doing. Goose

Weston, the town, sits a bit back from the river since it changed course several years ago, It also mostly sits on a hill, except for the lower part of downtown. Should be OK. Weston Bend, the state park, also sits on a bluff. The lower part of the park, right on the river bank will be underwater I think, but the bluffs, main hiking/biking trails, and campground are well above the river and will be untouched.
It certainly is a mess along the river a little further north, and they are predicting the high water to reach here this weekend. In spite of all preparations, parts of Parkville, and other riverfront areas will be under water. It happens every few years, and people here are pretty well prepared.

Time is getting close! We are still experiencing warm (not too hot) days, but the evenings and mornings have been quite nice. Looking forward to meeting all who can still make it!

We have been out 6 times so far this year, including a week in Lake McConaughy (very hot week) with the family unit. Had a lot of fun and still more camping weather left. See everyone there.
