Yellow River Camping

Rick and I spent a long weekend camping at Yellow River State Forest.
Our campsite! Rocinante is laying out to dry and the blue tarp tied to the tree is our makeshift shower curtain/ clothesline. We hang our camp shower beneath the tarp so we can wash up properly without offending any neighbors.

Viceroy Butterfly - the viceroy is a non-poisonous Monarch mimic, but the black band across the lower wing gives it away. The Monarch doesn't have one.
