Before or after you are struck by dead turkeys? Could be bruises!

What do you mean walk-in campsites? The map shows a big dark line that looks like a road. Did they decide that we need a big paved sidewalk to find our way to the walk in campsites?

Maybe they are anticipating us all being stinkin' drunk?

Why I never!

The walk-in sites have a little privacy.

The others are drive-in sites.

For goodness sake, y'all!

Its no more than 250 feet at most!

Just think of all that ambience being in the woods.

So you'll have to stagger to the car now and then.

The crapper is a lot further away than that!

I don't mind that they are walk in sites, although lets keep this a secret from my husband for a few months. I just didn't want to have a road right next to my site, but not be able to park there myself. That does happen sometimes.
LyndyS

so Lyndy wants us not to say anything to her hubby,

and I dont want to carry my things...

maybe we can work something out there!
Mapleleaf

Levitate your gear into the site Maple, just like you do with dead birds!
Geobeet

No Mapleleaf, I think this means that you MUST carry your things in, and I may have to carry all of my family's as well when he finds out that the car isn't right at the site. Lots of beer will help though.
LyndyS

Bring your gear sleds!

The sites are just off the lot and the $h!ttoir is right across the lot in the middle of the loop.

Hot Showers!

Well, if y'all don't like it, you can blame me!

It looked pretty nice, albeit under snow and without foliage.

Oh, I was just remembering the joys of farting in platoon formation while standing at attention.

The Sgt would be cussin' while we're trying to keep from laughing.
