Winter Excursion 10, Day 65

The breakfast sandwiches were a big hit with the staff as usual. They hadn't had any since last year and  asked when the next batch is!

I got the gazebo set up this morning. It is just in time for the rain tonight. That way I can put the chairs in it rather than folding them up and putting them in the pass-thru.

Our new dinette arrived today. Our co-host and I got it all set up. Only problem was they did not ship the table! They forgot to pack it! They did pack the table hardware. I called and they will send it ASAP. Here's a pic with the little outside table we are using until the real one arrives.

We like this way better than that Dinesk. And we get more storage underneath. They left side has a really big drawer.

Winter Excursion 10, Day 64

We continued with the set up today. Got the Flattop all set up and ready to go. Sounds like breakfast sandwiches tomorrow.

The weather turned a little warmer and we almost got to 60 today. We spent the afternoon outside people watching.

Sunset this evening was better than yesterday. Here you go.

We love our view from the camper!
  

Winter Excursion 10, Day 63

Woke up early this morning. We were anxious to greet the other employees that were not here yesterday. Again they were all happy to see us.

I did more camp setup. We are getting everything out as we will be here for 4 months. Got the grill set up, the picnic table moved to where we want it, cleaned up the site, and got the bird feeder set up and ready to go. We did a quick trip to Tractor Supply in Gray, GA to get propane and bird seed. Temps tonight are going to be in the 20s!

We had our co-host over for dinner, shrimp and Alaskan crab legs with all the trimmings. We had a good time catching up with Ed and all his happenings.

Here's a pic of the site.

Here's a pic of the sunset this evening. It's not bad, but there will be more that are better.

We will be doing more setup tomorrow.

  

Winter Excursion 10, Day 63

We left camp this morning just before 0900. The five hour drive to Dames Ferry State Park, GA was uneventful, which is want we want.

We arrived at the park around 1430 and were greeted by some of the employees and the other camp host. They were happy to see us. You would think we were their long lost best friends. It did our heart good to know that they really like us! 

We did minimal set up as it is windy and temps are in the low 40s. They are supposed to dip in the 20s tonight.

We really love this park and our site. The view of the lake is specular from our site. The sunsets are usually fantastic. I'll post pics over the next four months.

All is well in the Boss Camp! 

Winter Excursion 10, Day 62

We spent the day packing up, getting any last minute supplies we needed, and cleaning up the camper and our site.

We met the Kids, Kiddos, and Mary at Holy City Brewery. We had a great meal. The Philly Steak Hoagies were on special. The beer was good as usual.

Here's Brian and my favorite Granddaughter.

This is Wesley and Nicole by this giant thing I have no idea what it is!

Here's Cath and Mary (Nicole's Mom).

And Cath and I.

We all said our goodbyes and Cath and I were in bed by 2100. We are off to Dames Ferry and Camp Hosting tomorrow.

It's been a fun six weeks in Charleston!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 61

Around lunch time we went over to the Kids house. Brian and I taped off the new front door and he started the staining process. It is going to look great, by it will take around five coats!

We all left for a movie around 1500. For the past week or so we have been watching all the Avatar flics. The new one (#3) just came out and we got to see it in 3D. It was fabulous!

After the show everyone went to Evos Pizza for a late dinner. It was really good as usual.

We were home by 2100 and in bed by 2130.

Tomorrow is pack-up and say goodbye day!

Winter Excursion 10, Day 60

It was a very lazy day! We are still recovering from all the festivities!

I did a small rework on the extra sewer hose carrier. I was not happy with one of the clamps, now I'm happy.

We hung out at camp all day and yakked with a few of the neighbors. I did a walk around the campground and picked out the sites we would like for next year. This site tends to flood when it rains, like 2 inches deep!

We got our KFC fix for dinner, watched a little TV, and hit the rack early.

Two more days here and we are off to Georgia.
