We stopped at the Shell gas station in Prineville and got gas in the RV ($3.899 gal). On our way out of town we passed by the Crook County Courthouse.

We drove through the town of Dayville and took a photo of the post office there that had been a stop for the Pony Express.

There are towns named Dayville and John Day, the John Day River and the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument named after the early frontiersman John Day.
When we were about 2 miles west of the town of Unity, we turned north onto SR-245 and drove about 2 miles out to the Unity Lake State Park.

We arrived at the campground around 12:30 after driving 167 miles from Prineville. We chose campsite #17 which is a pull-through and parked the RV. We filled out a registration form and wrote a check for $22 for 1 night's stay.

After we leveled the RV and put out the slides, I fixed lunch. There are several RVs here and there is a group of people having a family reunion here this weekend.
We have electric (30 amp) and water hook-ups and we're on a paved pad that is level and grass on both sides of the RV - Tinker REALLY appreciates that.
We are able to see Unity Lake from our RV.

The state park is a pleasant break after driving through the high desert that we've seen most of today.
