Before we get into the good amazing pics I am going to share today ... let me talk a bit of every day life ... what has been happening with me. The hubby and I went on a trip over 2 wks ago ...to enjoy a Casita rally in Arkansas, was hoping for cooler temps. It was a real ball. Met lots of new friends and got to see some super awesome buddies. I had gone all summer not seeing in copperheads and was super happy about that ... was hoping my go for copper was going well ... well during that rally i got to see one and then came home to start my yearly fall chore of raking leaves and there was one to greet me. LUCKY ME. not!!! All good ... life goes on ... but Let me tell ya it was not fun. How come we have not heard much about the gas leak in Alabama recently ... it did affect us while traveling home through Nashville ...scared the pooh out of me ... I was wondering if we would make it home. Apparently it will only affect southern Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama ... I might...

North Bend Park, Virginia

North Bend Park, John H. Kerr Dam, Virginia. It was kind of rainy, kind of sunny. partly cloudy. It was a bit iffy, but we still made time to kayaking. Had a ball. The clouds & sun were playing on the waters, what great times to take photos. ( O : =   This area has so many different campground on different parts of the dam/lake. I believe this is the 3 different one we have visited so far, I'm sure the hubby has the others in the plans for later on... never know what he has up his selves. giggles.

Yates Mill County Park, North Carolina

Image
"Yates Mill County Park" , Raleigh, North Carolina. 174 acres park. Lots of hiking trails. Misty day. What we were guessing was an engagement photos as well as a family portrait time happened while we were visiting this mill. The engagement photo would be in the upper left of photo #1 and lower right of the same photo would be the family portrait. Beth just really wanted a shot of the mill, excuse me folks, could you please move?? Nope, they were totally in their own worlds, not realizing that others wanted shots of the mill without them in them. Some folks are clueless. Sorry, I am not trying to be a booger, but when I take photos, I jump in ... take some shots, rapid fired off real quick and then I get the heck out way. Other people these days just don't seem that kind? Why is that??!!  Thank you kindly for stopping by, I appreciate you time. Have a great day!  Beth ( ;

Little Pee Dee State Park, South Carolina

Happy Labor Day!! I always wonder about this thing called Labor Day, who decided to call it that? Was everyone in labor or what? Here's what google thinks:  "A public holiday or day of festivities held in honor of working people, in the US & Canada on the 1st Monday in Sept. in many other countries on May 1st". "Little Pee Dee State Park", Dillon, South Carolina . I think this was one of the most friendliest state parks, meaning the camp hosts actually stopped by, asked us where we were from, how long we were staying & just really went out of their way to make use feel welcome and thanked us for stopping by. I don't ever recall visiting a state park that has ever had dirt roads & I do wonder what they would be like on a rainy day? I bet they would a muddy mess. My Dad had to tell me that my 3 great aunts used to visit this state park when he was younger Mat, Meta & Min were there names. I only knew Meta, who made it till her 99...

Hunting Island State Park, South Carolina

Hunting Island State Park, South Carolina. We love this state park. I have lost count on how many times we have traveled here. Usually at the end of our trips ...heading back to Virginia. Love the sunset & sunrises there. So so amazing!! This time we rode our bikes on the beach. I have never done that before, can check it off my bucket list, kick stands don't work. The sand gets stuck in your tires and brakes. It can be a mess but so fun!!  The "I <3 You" was a message from the hubby he did with his toes, I figured I would share with you guys. xoxo!!  Enjoy this vlog from our day. Thanks for stopping by!!!

Whitetail Ridge Campground, Georgia

Whitetail Ridge Campground, West Point Lake, LaGrange Georgia. Amazing how many locations we visit that the water has really done a number on the water front, the erosion is amazing, kind of crazy scary??! We got pretty close to the osprey there too. So cool. Love when that happens, other birds are not so friendly, they fly away so I can't take their picture. : ( Please enjoy the vlog from that day. A quick one, fun all the same. Enjoy!!! Thank you for stopping, have a great day!! Beth ( :

Real Quick Note: Not sure how 2 posts got scheduled last week, but thanks to all who commented on both, we were camping at Maryland state park, no internet service, meaning now way to change it until we got home on Tuesday last week. We were eating by mosquitoes now stop. Outdoors, in the restrooms, going to the trash, couldn't go kayaking, could even take a bike ride... but we dealt with it and did take 2 long bike rides and did enjoy a few sights. How do folks deal with that a normal basics? WILD TIMES!!! I did mean to post it today... so Let's Get Started!! Have a super fabulous week!! ( ; "Lake Moomaw", Bolar Mtn., Covington, Virginia . This was our 2nd visit to Lake Moomaw, did you miss our 1st visit? "See here" . We were there June 19-21, for a quick long weekend trip. It was such great weather, nice to just get away, a chance to have no internet or phone call. Loved that.  As you can see I had a bit...
