Spontaneity

I'm sitting here in my Airstream wondering how to spell Spontaneity. I guess/hope the spell check on this iPhone will help me out.

This isn't the most adventurous of expeditions, but we are camping, and it was spontaneous! The girls are way excited. We got into the campground here at James Island Co. Park just before the gate closed. I guess that made me feel some tiny sense of living on the edge. I kind of wished it had been closed so we would have an excuse to keep on driving and find some new, unknown location.

Oh well, I'm gonna enjoy this mini vacation. Dropping the phone, picking up the book - Through Painted Deserts.

Black Mountain, NC

Well, it's an adventure, no doubt. I reserved a site at a campground in Asheville, NC for last Friday. We drove there. The place was a dump. I really like the state campgrounds, but most of them don't open with hookups until April. So, we had planned to try out this private campground. Upon finding it was a dump, I decided to cruise right on through to the other side and leave the place. When I got the other side, I discovered there was no way out. So, I had to back down the curvy, one-lane mountain road with my 24-foot trailer. This was not an enjoyable exercise.

Weekend turned out fun. We spent some quality time with my cousin Jay Watson and his beautiful family at their home in Black Mountain. Caroline and I spent one night in the Airstream. It was cold and rainy outside, but we were toasty warm under our electric blanket!

Bluegrass at the Farm

Took the Airstream to Col. George's farm this weekend. Enjoyed campfire, roasted pig, and lots of bluegrass music!
