Rest and Relaxation at Duffy's Landing

Above is pictured Jo's toy, fifth-wheel, camper, USCG Aux safety station; what ever you want to call it. After several weeks in the hospital Nick could not wait to get to the river. The first week-end out of Rehab we went guess where? To the river. Our camper sits there most of the boating season. We volunteer along with others of the US Coast Guard Aux Flotilla 02 to keep boaters safe. Our main focus here is to do boating safety inspections free for the general public. The parking lot is usually packed with vehicles and boat trailers overflowing into the grassy areas.
Nick is resting after his exciting arrival and his exercise walking around the parking lot.
Sitting at the edge of the bed watching out the bedroom window toward the river.
When looking at he outside view of the camper, that window is the small one to the right of the door (on the gooseneck). Same window in the picture where he is resting. It is also reflected in the mirror on the closet door in that picture.
Wow, something interesting going on out there better get a closer look !
Now he has moved to the sitting area of the camper. Looking out the living area window.
It is the large window to the left of the door. It is much bigger than it appears because we have the blind partially pulled. (the smaller window is the window over the kitchen sink see the edge of it on Nick's left) There is another large window to Nick's right at the end of the camper. We have a spectacular view of the river.
This is the actual view out of the window where Nick is sitting. Do you notice something on the launch ramp? It is the "Baby Belle". Will tell you more about this in the next post. Across the River is Cox's Park in Louisville. There is a boat launching ramp there also and Flotilla 03 usually mans that area.
