We were able to take our first camping trip this past weekend! Monday was a furlough day for us so it was a long weekend. The weather during the day was in the mid/high 60s and in the high 20s at night. We left work early on Friday, loaded the car up and headed off!
Brandon and I reserved a campsite at Hard Labor Creek State Park in Rutledge, GA. There weren't many other people there, as this was the first weekend this year with decent weather.
Rupert and Tonka went with us, so we made sure to find a site that had a big open area nearby. The one we ended up choosing was huge- there was plenty of room for a camper and a tent. (too bad we only have a tent...)
Brandon's family ended up booking a cabin in the park as well. His younger brother, Trenton, started Spring Break this week and was eager to get out and do something. There was a two night minimum stay requirement so they stayed Saturday and Sunday. The cabin wasn't as large as the ones we rented last year at another park, but it was still very nice. Trenton was able to bring a friend so while Brandon and his step-father golfed on Sunday, the rest of us walked around the park and enjoyed the weather.
We packed heaters, our tv (they have cable hookups at the campsites), dvd player and Wii. Brandon and I took the dogs on some of the nature trails and I walked them along the lake edge. Rupert and Tonka had a really good time but were excited to get back to their home, their yard and their beds!
