Fast forward and we left Korky’s Campground and headed to the coast of NC. We were going to spend two weeks at Cedar Point Campground. I needed to help my parents with some paperwork and we were going to celebrate an early Christmas with my extended family one weekend. We had also planned to have a surprise birthday party for my Mom that same weekend. And…my Mom thought it would be a good idea to hold a surprise baby shower for Brandon and Amanda! Talk about a busy weekend! <br />

We left Lynchburg, VA and headed to our home base in NC. We were more anxious to get there than normal. Why? Because, in late summer we had found out that Brandon and Amanda were expecting a baby! Woot Woot. It’s a good thing I had been practicing my “Grandma” skills with Dan’s nephews this past summer!<br />
<br />
We spent 6 weeks at “Korky’s Campground” and, as usual, we were quite busy!<br />

Dan spent a few days down in Cedar Key working on the boat hauler he designed to haul our Gheenoe. This will allow us to take the boat with us even when we are towing the rig. When he got back, to Korky's Campground, he had quite the audience!<br />

Barbara, Art, and I had planned on going to my parents house on the coast to surprise Dad for his 84th birthday. Despite many road closures from Hurricane Matthew, we were fortunate to still be able to make it down to the coast without incident. Art had picked up a BUNCH of donuts for Dad…<br />

It was a good visit albeit a quick one!<br />
<br />
On the way back to Korky’s Campground, we dropped Art off at the airport as he needed to get back to work. Barbara and I had signed up to be “day volunteers” with Samaritans Purse to help the flood victims in Eastern North Carolina. Hurricane Matthew had wrecked havoc. We spent 2 days doing some of the most physically challenging work I think I have ever done. We tore out sheetrock, wet insulation, baseboards and flooring. We moved furniture and personal belongings that had been ruined by the flood waters. We salvaged what we could…but it was minimal for the most part. We worked alongside other volunteers as well as the homeowners. One of the volunteers was also a homeowner whose home was totally destroyed. She worked on other people’s houses before her own. She was such an inspiration. . <br />

We stayed at the KOA northwest of Lynchburg. The campground is close to the Blue Ridge Parkway and hiking trails (a plus!) but, unless you opt for a full hook-up site, is not really big rig friendly (a minus!). <br />
<br />
We spent part of our time hiking, part of our time being tourists in Lynchburg, and part of our time chilling at the RV. Ashleigh has a cute apartment right smack dab in downtown Lynchburg…it is close to a really great trail (Blackwater Creek) and the farmer’s market. We walked some of the trail and went to the farmer’s market to check out what they had. We walked away with eggplant and donuts (what a combination!) She gave us a car tour of Liberty University (her new employer) and took us to a great used bookstore. I had scoped out a few hiking trails for us and we were able to hike together twice. Another time, Dan and I hiked by ourselves while Ashleigh worked.<br />
<br />
I was pleased as punch that we were able to hike a very small part of the AT. Our friend Jerry is currently hiking the AT and at last count, had less than 150 miles to go. <br />

We checked the shelter log book for our friend Jerry’s entry. He came thru the area in early June…the log book in the shelter was from late June. Oh well - it was very interesting reading the different entries. One girl had hiked 26.3 miles and was debating on whether she was going to go to the next shelter…another 8+ miles. Geesh - that’s a lot of miles! <br />

<br />
One of the things that I wanted to do was the “3 Dune Challenge”. You hiked the 3 tallest dunes in the park. Hiking in sand is much different than hiking in the woods with rock or dirt as the ground surface! <br />

Boy was it HOT HOT HOT and HUMID HUMID HUMID. We were running on 30 amps and one air conditioner. (our main one decided to quit working a few weeks prior and we were limping along until we could get to PA so Dan could install). Our site was in full sun and the heat indexes were between 112-117 while we were there. Ugh! We did our best to stay cool.<br />
<br />
We went to see the I&M Canal…a 96 mile long canal that was dug by hand in the 1800s. <br />

It is a small campground, has paved sites with decent spacing; 50A; no water hook-ups at individual sites but there were water spigots between sites. All this for $18 a night! And, we were in the trees which was nice as our main air conditioner decided it was time to quit! <br />
<br />
It was a wonderful place to ride bikes and chill…so that’s what we did. <br />

We were only there 2 nights but we really enjoyed our find!!<br />
<br />
We had made reservations at a Corp of Engineer campground for the 4th of July. Lake Shelbyville in Illinois is HUGE and has about 1500 campsites that are either on the north side of the lake (us!) or the south side of the lake (everyone else!). Not sure how we did it (luck?!) but we made reservations on the quiet side. Suited us just fine!!<br />
<br />
The ride to the campground was nothing but farmland! Corn and soybeans!! And boy was it flat!!<br />
<br />
We had booked 12 days and filled it with a mixture of sight-seeing, bike riding, smoking meat, playing cards, exploring the area, and chilling!<br />
<br />
We started our stay off by celebrating Syl’s birthday!<br />

Tipsaw Lake Recreation Area is part of the Hoosier National Forest in southern Indiana.<br />
<br />
Two things were really interesting about our stay at Tipsaw Lake. One, we could not find out the name of the town the campground is located in. County, yes; town, no. We had to use GPS coordinates. And two, we were right on the line of Central Time Zone and Eastern Time Zone. Apparently, Indiana observes both depending on which county you are in. We would bop back and forth between the two when we were out exploring. <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We had reserved sites in the Catbrier Loop as it was one of the smaller loops and was geared more towards big rigs. We are tucked in the woods, it’s very much our type of preferred campground, and we ended up extending our stay 2 additional nights.</div>
<br />
We quickly found out that southern Indiana is HOT, HOT, HOT. We did our best to stay cool though.<br />
<br />
The camp hosts had told us about a neat hike we would like. It is called Hemlock Cliffs and is part of the National Forest. It is about 30 minutes from the campground and was in a canyon so the temps would be cooler. We set off one morning to check it out.<br />

At this point, I figured I had seen all I needed to and was getting ready to turn around. My fear of heights was getting the best of me. But, both Dan and Syl encouraged me to continue on. Ahhh….peer pressure! So I did. And, I was so glad that I did. It was absolutely breathtaking.<br />

Doesn’t this look like some type of creature (we called it an alligator), with his mouth open and eyeball up top? <br />
<br />
The weekend warriors (family campers) were out in full force when we got back to the campground. We spent the rest of the day Friday watching them as our entertainment. We laughed ourselves silly. Saturday we spent hunkered down at our sites playing cards (learned a new card game!) and relaxing. Sunday was chore day and Monday we were supposed to explore Spring Mill State Park and West Baden Hotel (gangster hangout in the early 1900s) but the weather did not cooperate. Looks like we will have to come back to the area to explore those areas!<br />

In addition to the main attraction and hiking trails, this park has a TON of activities…..canoeing, kayaking, caving, ranger led programs, night hikes, etc etc.<br />

We spent the first few days exploring the tunnel and visitor‘s center.<br />

The tunnel was formed millions of years ago when groundwater that had carbonic acid in it ate away the rock and formed the tunnel. It is huge…about 200 feet wide and 80 feet high. There is some folklore that says that a Cherokee maiden and a Shawnee brave were forbidden to marry and jumped to their deaths from the highest pinnacle…now named Lover’s Leap. There is a still an active railroad thru the tunnel hauling coal. And, there is a creek that flows thru the tunnel. The campground sits atop the tunnel. <br />
<br />
There are two ways to get down to the tunnel…you can ride the chairlift or you can hike. We did both!<br />

Cory told us that the gate on this wild cave served two purposes. One, it kept trespassers out. Two, it kept bears out. The slates on the gate are horizontal instead of vertical for the bats. Apparently, due to the way they fly, they do not do well with vertical slats. Who knew?!<br />
<br />
We had 10 people in our group. We were told we would get dirty; we may get muddy. We got both! The cave was a “wet” cave and you had to do plenty of crawling. It was beautiful inside but also a little bit scary! Cory did a good job explaining different features of the cave and gave us time to look around. The scariest point of the experience was a cliff you had to navigate. It was about 20-25 feet high and about a foot or so wide. One side of the cliff was cave wall….the other side was open - and at the bottom, if you fell, was a substance like quicksand. GREAT! Thank goodness there was a rope you could hang on to but I was still very nervous. My friendly hiking partner Syl understands my fear of heights and is of great assistance when I am out of my comfort zone. I am so glad we had the chance to do it! It was absolutely amazing.<br />

We left Natural Tunnel State Park and continued to head west to Kentucky. We were going to Kentucky Horse Park Campground for a few days. Unfortunately, I had caught a bad, bad bug (which we later figured out was the FLU!!) and gave it to Dan, Gin and Syl. We did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in Kentucky except focus on getting better. We left Kentucky a few days ago and headed to Indiana….leaving that pesky bug behind!<br />

They told us it was small, sites right near a babbling brook, and very quaint. I’ve had it on my radar since then! <br />
<br />
We left Wilkesboro, NC and headed to Fries New River RV Park. We followed the directions provided by Tom, the owner, to a “T”. The roads were windy and a tad narrow but definitely do-able as long as you took your time. <br />
<br />
Tom met us when we arrived and told us to take our pick of sites. <br />

Oh, and his wife makes baked goods for each new arrival. We were the happy recipients of pumpkin raisin muffins!<br />
<br />
The RV park has 16 sites and a good number of them are right along the babbling brook. <br />

One of the main attractions of the park is the close proximity of the New River Trail. We were one block from where we could get on the trail! Talk about convenient!!<br />
<br />
We spent quite a bit of time on the trail. While not paved, most of the sections that we were on were hard-packed which made for mostly easy riding.<br />

The first day on the trail, we saw a Baltimore Oriole. It was such a treat and made Syl and I smile. A little further down the trail, we had an even bigger treat. We had stopped to look at the rock formation in the river….<br />

It was neat how the two formations paralleled each other. I walked to the other side of the trail and Dan motioned for Syl and I to come back to look at something….<br />

Fries is a very small town. I believe that the last census taken showed it had about 400 year round residents! But, the town is on the “Crooked River Music Trail” and music is an important part of the their heritage. Thursday evenings, the community center hosts a jam session. Syl and I walked to town to check it out….it was a larger crowd in attendance than I anticipated. There were 16 musicians playing all sorts of instruments. The youngest musician was about 4 years old. He was so cute playing the banjo! Most of the audience seemed to be locals and many of them loved to dance. Two-steppin‘ and flat-footin’….it was such a good time! Syl and I thoroughly enjoyed it.<br />
<br />

Gin and Syl joined us and, despite rain every single day, we had a wonderful week catching up, hanging out, having fun, and chilling!<br />

We set out one day for Shiloh General Store. We had been here before with Bruce, Laura, Gail and Rick and wanted to go again. We all ordered deli sandwiches for lunch and they were a BIG hit! No pictures as we were too busy eating! We left there and headed to Raffaldini Vineyards. It is a gorgeous winery….and we spent time enjoying the gardens and scenery.<br />

Gin, Syl and I did a wine-tasting and walked away with several bottles of “La Vita Dolce” (translated to “The Sweet Life”). Yum!!<br />
<br />
Syl and I set out on morning to see the frescoe paintings at two nearby Episcopal Churches. Frescoes are painted directly on concrete/plaster. Water is used to “soften” blend the paint. You can read more about these Ben Long frescoes here. The churches themselves were amazing and the paintings (and stained glass) even more so.<br />

Afterwards, Ashleigh and I went to a few thrift stores but didn’t find anything that said “buy me”.<br />
<br />
During our time at Korky's Campground, we spent quite a bit of time with Kork and her parents. We have helped them with several house and yard chores. I also got to spend some time with my bestie, Linda.<br />
<br />
Brandon and I took a road trip down to my parents house on the coast. My sister Barbara joined us as well. We were there to spend some time with them but also help with a few chores that needed to be tackled.<br />

The rest of our time at Korky’s Campground hanging out with the kids and friends....and we got to "babysit" Maple and Olive. That was fun! Our time went by much too quickly and before we knew it, we were on our way to start our summer travels.<br />

That got postponed so that we could attend two weddings! My niece, Ciara, was getting married in SC in April; Dan’s nice, Emma, is getting married in PA in September. <br />
<br />
So....we left Cedar Key on April 24th and headed to the Charleston, SC area with an overnight stopover in Georgia. We were VERY lucky to get a site for week at Buck Hall Recreation Area in McClellansville. We have stayed here before but it is a very popular campground and hard to snag a reservation. <br />
<br />
It was quite the chaotic week but so much fun! Shortly after we arrived, my sisters Cathy (Mother of the Bride) and Barbara picked me up at the campground and we were off and running! We had a few pre-wedding errands to run and spent some time at the nail salon getting pedicures and manicures. <br />

All too soon, it was time to continue our travels north. We headed to our very own "Korky's Campground" for a month long stay to see my kids, hang out with friends, and take care of those annual doctor appointments.

<br />
Gin, Syl, Maggie, Vel and I headed to the bat house at the Lower Suwanee National Wildlife Refuge. It had been on our “to-do” list for quite some time. There were supposed to be about 40,000 bats in there and I believe there were that many noseeums too!<br />

We've been enjoying happy hours at the clubhouse, campfires at Pelican Place (our private patio in the back), and riding our bikes. The weather hasn't been too cooperative when it comes to boating but we are hoping that changes soon. We're also finalizing our summer travels plans and will be celebrating weddings and birthdays, catching up with family and friends and exploring several new states. It will be good to be moving again!!<br />

<br />
What a busy, busy, busy 2+ months! It has been a whirlwind for sure. <br />
<br />
In late October, I flew to NC to help my parents out. Mom had knee replacement surgery in mid-October and my sisters Barbara and Cathy helped out the first two weeks. But, Mom needed some extra TLC so I spent three weeks pitching in. When I wasn’t driving them around or tending to their needs, I put Mom’s sewing machine to good use. I got a lot of projects completed.<br />
<br />
From mid-November to early December, I was back in Cedar Key. I’m still working in the office three days a week. It is “crazy fun”. I was warned about the kinds of questions people would ask but was still quite surprised to hear some of them. <br />
<br />
No ma’am we don’t have piranhas in the park.<br />
Yes ma’am we have do mosquitos/snakes/alligators (insert word of your choice!). This is Florida.<br />
No ma’am you won’t be swimming in our pool with 3000 of your closest friends.<br />
<br />
<br />
Dan has worked on and completed quite a few projects around the lot. <br />

I flew back to NC for a week earlier this month to celebrate Christmas with my kids, parents, sisters, and their families. And, As a bonus, I got to hang out with my bestie Linda one night. <br />
<br />
As usual, it was great seeing my kids and I really enjoyed spending time with them. Ashleigh and I had a “museum day” in downtown Raleigh. <br />

We enjoyed seeing the exhibits at the Museum of Natural Science, the Museum of History. We had a picnic lunch on a bench and people watched. That’s always entertaining. <br />
<br />
We drove to the coast to my parents house for the “Voyce Family Christmas” gathering. There’s never a dull moment and plenty of chaos and laughter!<br />

The rest of December was spent hanging out with friends and having fun. We had a HUGE turn-out for our parks Christmas dinner….about 120 people. We started the morning out with mimosas and ended with a yummy dinner.<br />

In early October, my sister Cathy and her husband Bruce came to visit us. They stayed in a rental unit in the park instead of in town and it sure was convenient. They were only here for a few days but we sure did manage to fit in a lot of FUN!!<br />
<br />
We went on a bike tour in town....<br />

We enjoyed some down time at the park, too. We had a nice campfire one night and learned that Bruce can communicate with the owls! They would hoot and then he would answer. This went on back and forth for quite awhile! Bruce also learned what happens when he puts skid marks from his bike on our concrete pad....<br />

We have a blast with Dan's nephews! <br />
<br />
We left PA and started heading south to NC. We decided to make Shenandoah River State Park our half-way overnight stop. I also had a feeling that Gin and Syl were there (no cell signal!) and figured we would surprise them. And surprise them we did! They had left for an all day visit with friends Sherry and David and didn’t get back until late that night. Oh well - at least we had a little bit of time to catch up before we continued our travels.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We arrived at Korkie's Campground in NC and chuckled when we saw yet another big "Welcome Home" sign. Kork never forgets to make us one! After a few days at Korkie's Campground, I headed down to my parents house. I was to be my mom's nurse while she had knee replacement surgery. However, at the last minute, that had to be postponed. So, never to miss an opportunity to hang out with my parents, I stayed down there 10 days. I helped them with a few projects around the house, fixed a few meals, and sewed and put together puzzles with my Mom. Not too many pictures as they kept me quite busy! :-)</div>

When I got back from my parents, we visited with friends and with Brandon and Amanda as well. We shared a few meals with them and Dan helped Brandon with some "bird prevention installation devices". Brandon and Amanda had some birds that nested in their eaves in the Spring and they wanted to make sure that they wouldn't be back. Problem is now solved!</div>

Our last night in NC, we had a blast with Brandon, Amanda, and Kork. We laughed until we cried at our silliness. Don't ever leave your camera unguarded as your adult kid will hijack it!</div>

In August, we were in Vermont...another one of our favorite states.<br />
<br />
We had reservations at Prouty Beach Campground in Newport, VT. It is a county run facility and we were lucky enough to get sites on a bluff. The sites are HUGE! Probably the biggest we have ever seen in our travels thus far. We were treated to gorgeous views as well as sunsets!<br />

We went out car-hiking one day and ended up getting ice cream and 1/2 gallon of maple syrup. We were also scouting out places for Syl, Dan and I to hike. All four of us walked a little bit of the Appalachian Trail and saw some of the impromptu campsites. Yes - this got me more intrigued! . <br />
<br />
Syl, Dan and I decided on which AT hike (Harmon Hill) we were going to do and set out one morning. It wasn't a long one but the description of the hike was a little un-nerving......"1000 ft ascent in less than 1/4 mile". Yikes! Well, we would take it slow and see how it went!<br />

This small (in miles!) section of the AT sure did get me thinking. And, where there is a will, there is a way!<br />
<br />
Our summer travels had now come to an end. We left Gin and Syl with hugs and "see you in Cedar Key". We were going back to the farm in PA for a bit before we head to NC....<br />
<br />
Stay tuned!<br />

We had an easy travel day to Sunset Point RV Park in Lubec, Maine. The location of this park is fantastic….right on Johnson Bay. The sites are quite tight but the views make up for it!<br />
<br />
We had a fantastic week exploring the area. We had “Tea with Eleanor” at Campobello Island. It was very neat to see the drastic change in tides - about 20 feet in Johnson Bay. We explored some of the carriage roads of Roosevelt’s summer property. Dan, Syl, and I hiked a few trails including a hike to East Quoddy Lighthouse that is only accessible at low tide. It was neat walking “under the sea”. Gin, Syl, Dan and I went to West Quoddy State Park and toured the lighthouse museum and watched the sunset.<br />
<br />
We also took a day trip to Eastport and visited Raye’s Mustard. Syl and I sampled goodies at Monica’s Chocolates (oh my they are delish!). We searched for “treasures” at low tide - tons of sea glass could be found! We also picked more blueberries! But perhaps the most interesting thing we did was see the “reversing falls”. <br />

From Lubec, we headed to Pejepscook Campground in Dixfield, ME. It is a small, family owned campground and we needed a place to stay for the weekend. The owners are very friendly and made us feel right at home. They are building a log home for themselves so that they can stay there year round. They gave us a tour of it and It is very cute! They had told us that there was a beautiful spot about 30 minutes away and, that if we had time, it would be worth the drive. It was called “Height of the Land”. The views were gorgeous<br />

Final blog about Acadia National Park coming soon!Dan and Triciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17470671942137771745noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8492218194057414828.post-41469863931002298402015-08-05T10:14:00.002-07:002015-08-05T10:14:43.276-07:00Acadia National Park - Part I of IIIAcadia National Park<br />
<br />
We spent the month of July at Narrows Too in Trenton, ME. This was a return visit for us (we were here 2 years prior) and were ready to “bag some peaks” (hike!) again.<br />
<br />
This area is so beautiful and we really never tire of the views. The rocks, the water, the trees….all of the scenery is just gorgeous. I took waaaay too many pictures as I really enjoy capturing the beauty here. The hiking is world class….very challenging but also very rewarding. We repeated some hikes we did 2 years ago but also explored some new areas. There is not too much wildlife here but we did manage to see a few deer and were delighted when we saw loons on Hadlock Pond. There were 2 adults and 2 juveniles. The adults were teaching the juveniles how to fish. Of course, this is when I didn’t have my camera! The only downside to the area this time of year are the black flies. Seems they like me! <br />
<br />
It’s nice when we are able to share our experiences with friends and family. July was quite busy from this standpoint and we were able to enjoy the company of Gin, Syl, Bill, Nancy, Doug, Darlene, Sharon, David, Peg, Michelle, Gail, Rick, Tim and Ann. Not everyone was here at the same time and we got to see some people longer than others.<br />
<br />
In addition to hiking, we enjoyed many campfires, rode bikes, chilled with friends, celebrated birthdays, and played games (I taught Molkkey to Nancy and Sharon!). We also had several combined meals together and Dan smoked for the group a few times. We had picnic lunches (when hiking and not!) and spent plenty of time escaping the mass crowds. We picked blueberries (two pies made; bunches of blueberries in the freezer) and enjoyed lobster. It’s a good thing that we are staying so active.<br />
<br />
Here’s the month in pictures….broken up into three blog posts! And, the pictures are in no particular order as this would have been too much to keep track of! :-) We had a few photographers in the group and we shared pictures so I can not claim all of these as ones that I have taken. <br />
