Crane hunt Camp

We stayed her to come hunt Sandhill Cranes a couple days. Conveniently located, it’s 7 minutes to a Dollar General, on a dead end road in a nice farm neighborhood, and located on the Colorado River. The home is older but has been updated, has an open floor plan. There is a plenty of shaded areas and a nice BBQ pit to use. The only thing that I could think of that would have made the stay more enjoyable is a small fire pit to sit by as you stare at the setting sun acrooss the river.
