ROADRUNNERS CAMPOUT AT LAKE PLEASANT, APRIL 5 – 7

 

This was one of the larger outings of the Roadrunners in the last few years with 5 rigs and 4 visiting for the day. It was held at Pleasant Harbor RV park adjacent to  the east  marina on the lake.

  The walkway above for the west marina begins on a low bluff, and one may take a small funicular to the walkway to avoid the steps.
