Itinerary: | |||||||
FDR State Park is Georgia's largest state park and only just over an hour south of Atlanta. Pioneer camping is a great way to enjoy the outdoors, make new friends and still feel like you have all the comforts of home. And have you tried my camp cooking yet? Mmmm! It will be traditional pioneer camping (well, somewhat) so bring all your comfy, luxury camping equipment to enjoy good times with new and old friends. Parking is located next to the campsite so you will not have to carry your gear far. The campsite has a shelter, picnic tables, pit toilet, running water and a large fire pit. Sorry, no comfort station so leave the hair dryers and make-up at home. We will arrive Friday evening, setup camp, cook up a good dinner and relax around the fire with fun conversation, stories and games. Music lovers are encouraged to bring their instruments. Saturday morning, we will have a nice breakfast, pack a picnic lunch, and head off for a moderate hike within the park. Later, we will cook up a gourmet dinner and again relax around a roaring fire and enjoy the good company. Sunday, it is a light breakfast, and then pack for home. We should be out of there Sunday morning by 11am. Come on out and join us!! | |||||||
