One thing that COVID has taught me is that I do not need to go to an office to be productive. I own a web development business and used to have a client that required me to be in his office daily to work on a system I developed. However, that position became an “as […]

Tennessee Falls Camping
A fantastic trip to visit Cummins Falls and Rock Island. Both are near Cookeville, TN. We stayed at Old Mill Campground which is just across the street from Cummins Falls State Park. The campground is nice with clean bathrooms. It makes a great base camp for visiting the area. Now, the falls are what makes […]
Edisto 2021
Love Love Love Edisto Beach State Park. We are at the beach campground, just a short walk over the dune to the beach. We are in space 59 which has plenty of palm trees for that tropical paradise feel and great places for the hammocks. We also can see the marsh which makes for a […]
Shibumi Shade
What a great invention. It is so simple, I cannot believe it has taken this long for someone to think if it. This beach shade uses the power of the beach breeze to make a large area of shade, the whole family can enjoy. Setup is simple. Just join the pole sections, slide the pole […]
411 River Rest
Well, if you really needed a place to camp and everything else is full, then 411 River Rear in Chatsworth, GA will be OK. The campground is not very well manicured and access to the river is impossible due to the high banks. If you are not riverside, then it is basically a parking lot, […]
Lakeside Lagoon
Hamilton Branch State Park has so many lake front spots. We are in 79, which is on a small “Lagoon” feeling space. The water is the easiest to get to in any spot we have had. The only noise aound is from an occasional fish jumping. I took the kayak out last evening to look […]
Time Out from the Crazies
When running 2 businesses, renovating a house and dealing with all the personalities that tag along, we said TIME OUT. Back to Hamilton Branch State Park near Augusta, GA. We originally booked Stone Mountain in Atlanta for the Yellow Daisey Festival, but they cancelled the show due to COVID. When camping, Olly always wakes me […]
Doll Tree House
Well, we are not in a tree house, but it feels like one. Doll Mountain Campground has campsites high above the lake it feels like we are amongst trees. The site is very well maintained with a level concrete pad and a perfect placement for the fire pit. There is also a wood deck perched […]
Best Beach Camping…so far
We travelled to the shores of South Carolina for a week-long stay at Hunting Island State Park. We had spot 102 and it was so very nice. A few years ago the park was hammered by hurricanes Irma and Micheal. The pictures I saw inline showed some of the devestation. I also read reviews of […]
Whistling Thule
I have a 2019 Toyota Tundra with a bare roof and I needed a way to carry 2 kayaks camping. Putting them in the bed of the truck was not an option because they hit the window of our Airstream if we turned too sharply. So, I ponied up and bought the Thule Evo Wingbar […]
