We're On Our Way! (June 13)

We had planned to be on the road "by 8:00" (per the captain of the ship) bright and early this morning but we ended up not getting started until 10:30 (and it should be said that Mom and I were ready on time!) Oh well, you know what they say about "best laid plans....". We had ALSO planned to drive to Ohio for our first stop, but since we'd gotten a late start, and ended up connecting with Libby and Chris and his Mom, Shelby in Waynesville (they were headed to Savannah from a conference at Lake Junaluska--YAY, for getting to see them!), we ended up spending the night in Boonesborough State Park in Kentucky (stopped around 8:00 p.m.)---one of my favorite spots since so many good memories were made there spent camping with my family when I was younger. Got a great spot, but it was late. Ended up picking up some sandwiches on the way in and we all had to laugh as everything came together too quickly and too well to be REAL camping. We didn't unhook from the truck since we planned to get an early start in the morning, I "set the table" with the sandwiches bought earlier and some canned drinks, Steve plugged us in, opened the awning, lit a DURAFLAME log and WAH LA: Instant camping! The air was already feeling a bit cooler and our little camper came through again, proving to be quite cozy, even with our extra boarder (love ya, Mom!).
