Wednesday the weather didn't cooperate with us. It looked a lot like rain so we decided on a trip to Cripple Creek, a town loaded with Casino's up in the mountains about 40 miles from camp. It was a fun little trip not yielding us any winnings. we lost our _ _ _ at the Brass Ass Casino. Kathy gets to see wildlife here. There was a pack of 4 wild Donkeys that she tried to coax to the truck.They were not having any part of that without food for them to eat, but it was fun watching her try. We again had a taste for pizza so we stopped in Lake George at this small Italian Café. After this pizza we will not have a taste for that for some time. Thursday we slept in ... read more

We are here and all is well. We traveled to the Ozarks and what started out as a 5.5-6 hour trip turned over 9 hours. We hit two construction zones which were not to bad, then we hit severe weather where we were basically at 10 MPH on the highway(along with everyone else), then we hit the accident. We had lunch outside the truck standing on the Interstate for 1.5 hours. Lake Ozark and the camp ground are very nice. The weather however is not cooperating well so we are spending time at camp and just using as relaxing time. Monday we did sneak in a great bike ride which gave me the idea of renting some wave runners and cruise the lake and that is what we did. We then finished up the day going ... read more

Well it's Thursday the 4th of June and we have a visitor coming from Wisconsin, Kathy's daughter Tanya. We are enjoying a relaxing day at the campgrounds getting a few things done while enjoying the day. The weather forecast for the weekend is hot and sunny so it should be a great visit. Tanya arrives at 5PM and we start the visit with one of our favorite dinner's Kathy's homemade chicken salad, a fire and a few laughs. Friday we decided to go up the mountain VIA horseback near Pigeon Forge, TN and enjoy some sights from a different perspective. It was a wonderful unguided ride and so peaceful it was incredible. We then ventured back to Gattlinburg, TN so she could take in the sights along the way and see the commercialized little town. One ... read more

We arrived in Townsend Tennessee on 28th of May and found a really cool place in the world. The area is awesome with wonderful views of water, streams, and mountainous terrain. The neighbors we meet in the campground are awesome and only live 30 miles from here. They come and enjoy all summer long and were a wealth of information and help of what sites to see and best things to do. We started out on Friday the 29th with a motorcycle ride through the mountains to Cades Cove. I have a cute picture of the first guy we meet here in the mountains below. We were pulled over for no helmets. I didn't even look because we saw people all over town not wearing helmets. Well as it turns out there was a huge motorcycle ... read more
