If you're thinking of campgrounds in Texas, Dallas probably doesn't come to mind, but tucked away on the south side of the city is Camp Wisdom and it's more than worth the short commute from the city.
Camp Wisdom is the home to Billy Sowell Scout Camp and Cub World. The camp is located 11 miles from downtown Dallas on 371 acres of land. In addition to the camping sites and shooting range, Camp Wisdom has some unique and very cool features including a frontier fort, a life size castle pirate ships, underground tunnel, and more. My kids and I really enjoyed out campouts here. You can find out more about this great Circle 10 campground at http://www.circle10.org/camp-wisdom-billy-sowell-scout-camp. This 5" x 7" oil painting on an oil primed linen panel is from my last campout there with my two boys and my daughter. Not far from the shooting range we stumbled upon this picturesque scene. I painted this alla prima in about two hours spread out throughout my day. |
