Hiked most of the trails in the park this morning. Nice easy walk. Not a lot of trail. Only took a couple hours.
This afternoon we took a drive through the wildlife reserve near here. Lots of flat woodland. Also some history. During WW II Monsanto had a munitions plant here. By the end of the war they had made some 400 million pounds of TNT at this site. It reopened during Korea under different management. It must have had some later use because we found one building with a room full of paper records stacked to the roof. Some of it had fallen to the floor by the locked steel rail door. It was from Morton Thiokol in 1986. It seemed to be 30 year old payroll stuff.
Then on to the Jonesville Country Store, but they closed at 2 so we didn't get to see it.
So goes another day at camp.
