Luxurious rustic accomadations

U1144 The river changed it's personality today. We padded through dense Forest with some high banks in places. The swamp is behind us maybe and we are now in a river. The color of the water has turned brown. The banks are muddy, they have been sandy for the last few days. We had a good current and mostly a tailwind. We are staying in a county park. I saw that this park had cabins for rent. I got one. It's 2 bunk beds (no mattresses), well water, and pit toilets. We just went for a walk after dinner. The mosquitoes are a biblical plague. We wondered why we were the only people in the park. If fact we have been alone every night at every campsite.
