First tent camping trip of 2022

Image
I’m late posting again❤️!!  Last weekend Mike and I tent camped at Smokemont campgrounds in the great smoky mountains national park. We were at site B 34 which we love. It was a great weekend.  It was a bit cold at night.  We have upped our camping game with a queen sized cot!!  No more crawling around on the tent floor. Also we can sit on the bed to get dressed!!  We are SPOILED!!  Did I mention we have a shower and a pop up clam shelter.  OH and our tent and shower are made new!!  They are made by Core.  The poles are attached for easy setup and take down!!  We are definitely spoiled!!!

Santee State Park Camping Trip

Image
Mike and I spent a long weekend at Santee State Park. We camped in our travel trailer from Friday to Monday.  Friday night was cold and rainy๐Ÿ’ง๐ŸŒง☔️๐ŸŒ‚.  Saturday was cold and windy.  Monday was the best weather day but of course we had to go home for work tomorrow ☹️.  We were in the Cypress Campground.  Loved it!!  The other campground has more sites but definitely not as nice.  No wildlife this weekend except some squirrels.  Mike did see a fox squirrel when we drove in.  Ate dinner at Lonestar BBQ Friday and Saturday.  We did check out the Santee Indian Mound and Fort Watson.

Zach Williams Concert

Last night Mike and I attended the Zach Williams concert in Florence, SC.  We did the Eat and Greet before the concert.  It was so much fun!!  Zach is our favorite Christian artist.  His music and ministry are amazing.  The first song I heard of his was a few years ago during a really hard time in my life.  We were listening to a Christian station and Fear is a Liar came on.  WOW!!  Just WOW!!  He has a way of reaching so many people❤️❤️.  Zach has a chef that travels with him.  The food and fellowship was great!!  We got to hear 5 new songs from his new album that’s not out yet.  Y’all I was sitting 3 feet from Zach!!  He’s so down to earth!! If you don’t know his music check it out๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š. ~ Robin

Givhan’s Ferry State Park

Last weekend we camped at Givhan’s Ferry State Park outside of Charleston, SC.  It was a quiet weekend.  Saturday night we shared a great meal with our friends Steve Twitty and Lisa Daniels.  Lisa and I met in graduate school at the College of Nursing, University of SC in the mid 1990’s.  We were both back in school to become nurse practitioners ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š.   I made a promise to myself to keep blogging our trips❤️❤️.  Late on this one.  I’m in the truck with Mike as I’m working on this post.  We are headed to Santee State Park for a long weekend in our trailer๐Ÿ˜Š❤️.  Y’all know I have depression.  Most days are really good.  Some days are not as good.  No real reason for the “bad” days.  They just happen hence why I’m late on posting ❤️.  I like to be transparent about things as it may help someone else.  Robin
