This morning Gerri & I got up around 7:30, made some hot tea since neither of us drink coffee, read some blogs on the computer and just eased into the day. This is such a nice time of day in the campground. I fixed Gerri some oatmeal and me some pancakes with warm maple syrup and they were really good and hit the spot.
I decided to clear a little more around the lower end of the lake to open up the area for a breeze and a better view of the lake for the campers.
We have cleared about 100 feet of the lake bank so far and have about 40 more feet to clear and that project will be complete as well as look so much better.
Gerri grilled us some Cheddarwurst dogs and baked potatoes for lunch and they were really good. We just chilled for a couple hours after lunch watching as campers started coming in for the long weekend.
Later we decided to go the Country Store at Callaway Gardens and get a couple of diet cokes.
That store sets on top of the hill overlooking Callaway property and also with a view of the Steeplechase area of the gardens. We sat and visited for about an hour and enjoyed some time away from the campground.
We got back to the campground and had some more campers in for the weekend, a seemingly great group of people and very friendly. One camper made three laps, oops make that 6 laps before finally deciding on a spot……decisions decisions. Just about the time we finished our rounds, the rains came and it sounded so good in the motor home, it made us want to take a nap. Thirty minutes later, the rains stopped and the sun was shining.
We finished off the day by watching television and just enjoying the evening together. We hope you had a great day also.
The brush clearance by the lake turned out good. And...your views at the Calloway Gardens were wonderful.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy a great day tomorrow, too.
That sounds like a wonderful day, Mike. Time to enjoy each other's company is always a good thing. Sounds like you are building up an amusing collection of camp hosting stories!
ReplyDeleteYour project is coming right along. What a great view it will be.
ReplyDeleteDon't work too hard!
What a lovely post. Days like this make it all worth while.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the perfect full-time day. Just taking it as it comes. Big hugs to both of you.
ReplyDeleteOH what a nice job you guys did on the lakeshore. Around our neck of the woods you can not cut anything other than grass or weeds along the river. Anything bigger around than your thumb is against the law. They consider the root systems of the natural shrubbery and tree necessary to prevent erosion and you are in big trouble if you clear anything within so many feet of shorelines.
