We stayed Saturday night in Montgomery at The Woods RV Park, a large and very hospitable campground. Fortunately, on our way out of Montgomery on Sunday morning, we passed right by (and stopped at) a Starbucks!
Our trip North on Sunday was unevenful except for a lo-o-ong construction delay just south of Atlanta. We pretty much decided that we have been averaging one major traffic delay per state, so the Atlanta one kept our average up.
In Greenville Sunday night, we moved in to the Paris Mountain State park, a delightful 1540 acre park smack dab in the middle of Greenville, SC .http://www.southcarolinaparks.com/park-finder/state-park/722.aspx if you wish to look it over.
We had a great four day stay at Paris Mountain. We made some great new friends from Charleston who were accompanied by their granddaughter Ayla. Between the company of Ayla and our great-niece Sara, Clayton would just as soon have stayed there. They all had a terrific time playing. I've included a couple of pics of the kids. We're beginning to learn that new friends, especially for the kids, is one of the great benefits of camping out.
My sister Sharon along with my brother Conrad and sister-in-law Rita were great hosts. They, along with my niece, Lori, her husband Tim and daughter Sara and Tim's Mom Pat joined us for a wonderful family time and camp-dinner on Tuesday night prepared very nicely by Peggy. Conrad and Rita even loaded up their camper and camped (along with Sara) beside us Tuesday night. A good fellowship! We loved the cool weather there and the rain that we had on Tuesday night. A far cry from our over-100 degree days that we've been having in San Antonio.
Wednesday Conrad and Rita left for their own camping vacation up the East coast into Canada. They had delayed their start to spend some time with us which we very much appreciate!
Thursday morning we departed the cool South Carolina "Up-country" for Charleston and the coast. True to form, we had a construction delay north of Columbia where a travel trailer and its tow-vehicle had flipped over several times, separating the trailer's body from its frame. That sight slowed me down even more.
