Maumee Bay

August 8th, 2015

We made our first trip to Maumee Bay in Oregon Ohio to the State Park. We came here for our Anniversary of 35 years! Beautiful weather and we had no rain and temps were low 80's most of the time. Maumee Bay Park is laid out like the fingers of your hand with a cul-de-sac  at each end. We were on one of these cul-de-sac' s  with a pond on the back side of us. We opted to pull in towards the pond so we could see it in the morning rather than the neighbors rv.
     The beach is only about a mile away by road or a little less if you take the bike trail. This weekend the beach's have a algae bloom alert so not many swimmers but a few.


Saw lots of deer  and even saw one doe with 4 fawns. That was weird, the ranger suspects she may have adopted 2 of them if maybe the mother was killed.

While there I did a little metal detecting on the beach, that was a flop. Think I found .12c. Ohio grooms and sifts their beaches to probably keep glass and crap out but in the mean time they get all the good stuff..
Jessie wasn't allowed on the beach which was just as well since we wouldn't let her get in the water with the algae warnings.
