Lead Mine Conservation Area just NW of Buffalo near Tunas, MO. June 22 and 23d, 2017. Temps were a moderate 82 with a low of 70. Nice and sunny and no wind. Marshall, Mark, Rob, Dave, Oliver, Jackson, Jimmy, Jared enjoyed a very relaxing mid day to mid day over night campout. This conservation area is about 4 times the size of Busiek State park. It features the Niangua River where we camped and did some fishing. I purchased a brand new Kayak sit on top and we broke it in catching fish and doing some playing around with it. Rob caught 2 nice fish while he was floating in it.
We visited the shooting range after setting up camp and shot about 80 rounds through Marshalls AR and several rounds through Robs hand gun. The Shooting range was empty besides us there. It's a nice shooting range.
We enjoyed a trip to the Lead Mine Country Store and bought some items there and had coffee and fresh baked cookies, strawberry -rurbarb danish and apple dumplings. All good!
