Texana Lake Camprgound

Hello Campers, Daves Outdoor World arrived a couple weeks ago from Illinois. So far we are loving Texas weather and why not. In Illinois they received their first early snow of the year of about 8 to 14 inches and pretty cold to boot. So we are very happy to be hear. But not only that we are very happy about Texana Lake Campground as it is a very nice place. So far there has been plenty of wildlife including lots of deer to photograph and enjoy. Even seen a few Gators. Was hoping to do some kayaking but just not sure about it yet in the lake. Everyone else seems to be unafraid. With a low profile boat such as a kayak just not sure about my arms dangling over the side. Lots of trails to walk and enjoy and a nice view of the lake from the camper. We had a Great Thanksgiving as we went out to eat. Rained pretty hard today and feel sorry for the tent campers, with more to come. Happy Thanksgiving to you all out there. Enjoy your long weekends...So for now I am signing off. If you would like to follow Daves Outdoor World just go to Daves Outdoor World web page or to my facebook pages. www.Davesoutdoorworld.com  find me on social media facebook, twitter and google plus and more. Send me your pics of your Rv or tent camping or any unusual pictures of funny things that happened while camping. God Bless and Happy Camping....

University Of Illinois Hennepin Canal Survey

Hello Friends, recently I was contacted by the University of Illinois. Dr. Laura and her students were conducting a survey on the Hennepin Canal and want help in getting the survey out. I hope that all of you will help by taking this survey and passing it on to your kayaking and biking friends. These kinds of surveys and research will be used by many different organizations, groups etc. The Hennepin Canal is starting to gain a bit of momentum as more and more people are discovering this historical multi national trail system and its importance not only for people but for environment and wildlife. Daves Outdoor World has been an advocate for many years working to educate and promote the Hennepin Canal. I will continue to say that the Hennepin should be the focus in Rock Falls and Sterling. The canal has the potential to draw in tourism, new business, new tax money and more. This kind of involvement by the University Of Illinois is very importat in our efforts to preserve, educate and bring awareness to this great trail.
