"Down by the banks of the Hanky Panky, where the bullfrogs jump from bank to banky..." Anyone else sing that song as a kid? We did actually hear some sort of loud frog or toad thundering away on the far side of the creek, but no one knew what kind it was.

For Memorial Day weekend, we packed up ourselves, our pooches, and our gear and headed north to a 'women only' campground near Dahlonega, GA called Swiftwaters Womanspace. The owners of this private creek-side property have operated a very cool camping experience for women since 1979.

Sadly, we were not very good about taking pictures, but I managed to grab a few of Shay and Emma G.

The weather was nice. Low 90's and pretty humid, with a few episodes of thunder and lightening in the distance. We endured one brief shower, but didn't even need to put the rainfly on the tent. The creek was nice and cold and just deep enough to wade in and cool off or take a float on an innertube.

As we drove back home late this morning, I decided that it was time to get rid of the hot mop of hair I had been enduring until it was my turn under the clippers.

Only two more weeks until The Epic Roadtrip begins!!!

The Epic Road Trippers

Shay and Kate

We're Shay and Kate, a couple of 31 year old grrls who live in Atlanta, GA and who are very much in love with each other, travel, and the great outdoors. As of June 12th, 2006, we, our two dogs (Emma and Bela), and our Subaru (packed with all the gear it can carry) are embarking on an epic 10 week road trip around the US. We'll be camping, hiking, backpacking, exploring, and visiting with family and friends. We'll be covering 24 states and over 8000 miles on our journey, so there will be plenty of time to blog away from the passenger seat. Here is a link to a [url=http://www.travelblog... full info
