A campfire at last

We're back in Virginia, though not yet home. Instead, we're spending a few days in the mountains, enjoying the cool temperatures and-----finally-----lack of rain.  After 7 weeks traveling, last night was our first campfire.  There have always been burn bans (because of drought) or high temps (making a fire rather unwanted) or no fire-ring or no firewood.  So here at Hungry Mother State Park, we made our first fire, and we sat outside late enjoying it.

We'll do some hiking today, then move to another section of the park for overnight. (All the sites here in campground B were reserved for the weekend.)  Then it's home.....and lots of unpacking and cleaning up to do!

  2. Looking forward to your return. We're still getting a bit of rain each day so all is lush and green here.
