Meridian State Park

Legacy and I made our way out to Meridian State Park, west of Hillsboro and located near absolutely nothing major. It was wonderful!
Our hike took us around the entire lake and through the prairie located just north. Beautiful and very quiet a spot we look forward to doing yakpacking practice runs at in the spring. 
Meridian Lake is really quite small and perfect for paddling as it is a no wake lake. They have campsites right on the shore which will make for a perfect spot for us. 
This was the longest car ride Legs has been on and she handled it like a champ, only getting confused by the length near the end. Of course on the way back, she was all Zzzzzzz's after the 5 mile hike. 
On the way back we stopped by the Bottle Rocket Motel for a visit and it was splendid as always. 
She looks tired and honestly, so was I. It was a great day but we both need so more conditioning before the big trip next year.
