We paid for reservations a couple of weeks ago for a visit to Palo Duro State Park. We wanted to hike the Lighthouse trail. But when we got up in the morning, the wind was blowing hard. David had hiked the trail once before on a windy day and the wind picks up a lot of sand and dust and blasts you. So we decided maybe we would just drive the canyon. We stopped off in the town of Canyon to pick up some local honey at the Honey Bee Vineyard before heading out to the park. At the entrance, we informed the ranger of our reservation. But she said she did not have one under that name, and David had not gotten a email from the system. So we were denied entry to the park. We were halfway back to the Wanderer before we realized that the reservation was probably under Leslie’s name and we had not thought to ask. But it was not worth the drive all the way back, so we called it a day and rested up for tomorrow’s long drive to Fort Worth.
