Round 2 at Rolling Hills

Ranier, AB

Rolling Hills Reservoir Campground 

Site #A15: $40 (x8) p and wifi Temp 30C

We packed up camp on Sunday and I dropped Ron off at the hospital for his cataract surgery on Monday May 8th at 8am. It appeared to go well, but his eyesight remained blurry Monday and Tuesday. It had not cleared in a couple of hours like many had reported would happen. 

Thankfully he had a doctor's appointment late Tuesday and the ophthalmologist assured him that all was well but there was a bit of swelling. This is unfortunate but normal. Everyone is different. Ron felt much better and by the next day the blur had cleared and he could see extremely well! At his appointment a week later he got the go ahead to resume all normal activity. Including driving and camping. That was Tuesday. 

On Wednesday morning we brought the trailer home, packed, and by 1 pm we were set up and eating lunch at Rolling Hills!

At first we were disappointed that our usual favorite spots weren't available, but we were much happier in our assigned site. We realized later that all our first choice sites had the dividing hedges majorly trimmed and they are open and not private anymore.

It felt good to be camping once again and we did our usual walk, bike ride and enjoyed an evening campfire. It was like we were the only campers.

Hooray for Dollar Store readers!

Many units were parked to "save the site" but noone was around. I expect there will be a little more activity for the upcoming May long weekend.
