Geocaching near Brantley Lake

We did a little geocaching today, despite the fact that it was windy and cold. We were able to find all 3 caches, one of which was near this lake shown in the picture. As you can tell from the picture, there truly is absolutely nothing around. We did stumble across a campground, in the middle of the open air...no trees, no bushes, nothing to buffer the blowing wind; but there it was, a campground with 2 or 3 campers.

On the bright side, two nights ago we played Bingo and lost our $3.00. Last night Henry played poker (and lost), while Wendy (the manager) and I shot a game of pool. We figure we'll keep doing the Bingo, Poker and Pool two nights a week, and who knows, we may even start winning!
We also walked the .7 mile to the post office a couple days ago, so got in a little exercise. The post office is the smallest one I've ever been in...but you never have to wait in line, and the postmaster remembers your name. Like everything else here, the post office is in the middle of nowhere, too.
