Less carbonation too.

Summer of ‘81 was the first time I had Hamm’s beer when I was 13. My uncle taught forestry at Utah St and it was his last year there. My aunt and uncle had me and brother come that summer too see that part of the country before they moved to California. The forestry students had to do a summer...

We have the Senior pass too and the SC State Parks don’t give a Senior discount until 65. Although as of 3 days ago, we now qualify for that,. Lol. The state parks are usually more expensive anyway. On the SC side of Lake Hartwell are 4 campgrounds plus one Group campground that are COE. Only...

The only problem with it is they have it closed during some of the best camping months here since they only run May 1- Sept 30. This one and several other COE on a Lake Hartwell had their seasons cut down in the ‘08-09 financial kerfluffle. Couple of others closed down completely, one in SC &...

Fort Boonesbororough State Park in Kentucky had AC in the bathhouses. It was nice not sweating coming out of the showers. Stayed nearby in the more expensive Kentucky Horse Park with no AC and they were some humid bath houses.

Coneross is in Oconee County but just across the lake from Clemson. Real close to the airport if you ever flew into Clemson. My mother and her parents are from pretty close to the Chatooga River in Westminster. On the SC side was a famous moonshiner, Silas Butts down near the River. He adopted...

I agree. I kept wondering what if some kid had come to use the restroom or take a shower. The only thing kept from me from going in while they were in there was I had the dogs with me. It was just weird.

I’ve made mistakes like that before too. And I teach so if they designate bathrooms male or females the women always use ours if it is a single with a locking door since there so few men there. This woman was with her husband/ boyfriend/ friend with benefits in there. I waould assume he was...

Camped for a few nights close to the house at Coneross Campground (see campground write up I did in the campground reviews) to make sure we had everything in working order with Jeremiah & us before we head to New Mexico in a few weeks. Of course you clicked to see what the woman was doing in the...

Coneross Campground is a Corps of Engineers campground on Lake Hartwell in Townsville, SC. It is open from May 1- September 30. You are really close to Clemson where Clemson University is located. There are 106 sites on 3 separate loops with 4 bathhouses. We were in site 81. All the sites are...

Nice find.

Got our trip planned to New Mexico in a few weeks. Stopping near Litttle Rock on the first day to camp at Maumelle park along the Arkansas River. Next night we’ll be at Sanford-Yake Campground on Lake Meredith near Amarillo, TX. Then a few nights near Santa Fe before heading up to Red River...

Never camped at Cumberland Mountain State Park but we’ve been there a lot. Mary Ellen’s used to live close by and we would rent a cabin there sometimes. Campground always looked nice. I used to run through it We used to tent camp in the Smokies a lot, but never made it to Elkmont. Mostly did...

Unbelievably mild here this weekend in SC. We’ll be paying for this for the next 3 months, but it’s nice for now.

Track season over. Just missed a state championship. School almost over. Time to get camping. But this weekend I have to go to Atlanta to babysit our daughter’s cat.

I have depth perception problems because of it. My school has covered walkways to get from building to building. I run to the posts on my right side sometimes. When I coaching I video the jumpers and throwers in slow motion to be able to look what they are doing/wrong. Pretty sure I couldn’t...

Mine was a macula-off detachment, the worst one to have. I’m to the point that I’m no more likely to have another than anyone at their point. Just go in once a year now to get it checked. That eye sees things like you look in a fun house mirror.

Did cataract surgery a few years ago and it wasn’t to bad. I had developed one as a side effect of having a detached retina repaired about 3 years earlier. The surgery itself is not that different, but the recovery is horrible. You have to stay face down including sleeping that way for a week...

I wonder where we’ve put our Camp Inn manual & log book?

It was. The next 3 weeks will be long with State testing in the classroom & we begin qualifying for the State Meet in Track next week too. After May 15, I’m going to need another weekend like that.
