  • Back to Camping… FINALLY! In this video, you’ll see our first outing of the year, a late-winter’s weekend over to Petersburg Corps of Engineers Campground on Lake Thurmond. We didn’t make time to hike Bartram Trail when we camped here last summer, so doing that was the “main event” of this trip. Watch as we arrive at our lovely lakeside campsite and then take a little-bit-longer-than-expected hike through the woods around the lake...

    My husband and I are recovering from sumac. We had beautiful weather and decided to get rid of a Bush next to our driveway and it had sumac growing in it. Had all the protection it failed. May we are going to military camp ground in VA beach two weeks. Then we are going to lake Hartwell in June for two weeks. Enjoyed your video hope the adventures will keep coming.

    Glad to see you guys back out there. We just got back from Crooked River & Laura S. Walker State parks down in south Georgia a couple weeks ago. Can't wait to hit the road again in a few weeks. If you haven't visited Crooked River yet, we highly recommend. We had site 39. It was full hookup, huge and a nice view of the river. Looking forward to hearing what you guys think of Chester State park. It's on our list to hit this Spring.
