Mission 036 - Camping at Table Rock SP | Hagood Mill | UPSTATE SC

Thanksgiving 2022 saw us visiting Table Rock State Park in the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains. Continuing our exploration of the original Civilian Conservation Corps parks here in South Carolina, we spent four crisp fall days soaking the mountain air!  While we didn’t actually hike to the top of Table Rock itself, we did have a great hike while there, and discovered Hogood Mill Historic Site over in nearby Pickens, SC. Come along with us and see! 

…and stay tuned after the video for a special “epilogue…” 😞

Mission 035 - Sesquicentennial State Park | Labor Day 2022 | Columbia, SC

Welcome to Sesqui! (that's what the locals call it, anyway...) Labor Day long-weekend saw us buzz over to our capital city of Columbia to visit one of South Carolina's original state parks. With this weekend being an off-from-work holiday, our wedding anniversary AND the first Saturday of the college football season, we had a lot to celebrate! Tag along with us as we see the very-nice day-use area and walking paths that the locals love so much, and then venture into the throng of 70,000 rabid Gamecock fans for some Saturday night football! Of course, we did some hiking through the sandhills and forests of the park on Sunday, too... 🥾

Mission 034 - Hamburg State Park | GEORGIA STATE PARKS | CSRA Camping

What a lovely, peaceful place!  Take a look at our discovery of Hamburg State Park!  Located between Augusta and Milledgeville, Georgia, this remote park is home to a 28-site campground situated next to a 225-acre lake, where one can fish for bass, crappie and bream (which, of course, we didn’t do…).  The park also features a 1920s-era grist mill, and four different hiking trails.  Watch all the wildlife that walked, flittered and swam past our campsite, and see why this “hidden gem” in Georgia’s roster of parks is now one of our favorites! 

Mission 033 (Pt. 5) - The Voyage Home 😞 | SPRING BREAK 2022 - Ep. 5

Our week-long Spring Break adventure comes to an end, darn it!  Ride along with us as we leave Disney’s Fort Wilderness Campground and make our way back home, struggling through high winds on Interstate 95 and thick crowds at Buc-ee’s.  We then make overnight stop at a new-to-us RV resort outside of Savannah, Georgia, and check out a neat little place for coffee before finally getting the Aluminum Falcon back in his “docking bay.” 

Mission 033 (Pt. 4) - Disney's Magic Kingdom & Animal Kingdom! | SPRING BREAK 2022 🌞 Ep. 4

We jammed the last two to-be-visited parks of our Disney World week into one day! Take a look and see how we breezed through the Magic Kingdom in the morning and Animal Kingdom in the afternoon... and barely scratched the surface! We'll show you why "Pirates of the Caribbean" is a must-do for any Disney World visit, and also why, by the end of the day, we would heartily recommend giving that same status to the "Avatar: Flight of Passage" ride, too!!

Mission 033 (Pt. 3) - Around-the-World at EPCOT! | SPRING BREAK 2022 🌞 Ep. 3 | DISNEY WORLD

Spring Break 2022 at Walt Disney World continues! Our second day of theme park fun finds us at EPCOT, where we get to jump on a few more rides than we did over at Hollywood Studios the day before. Come along and see us bounce from country to country, taking in the sights and sounds of all the national sections of EPCOT, before ending the day with one of the best burgers we've ever had!
