We have June 25-26 on the calendar as a camping weekend.
We have not picked a place to camp yet. So I ask, 'who wants to go camping?'
Where do we want to go? _________________ 73 Typ481

Fort Yargo is great and it is close and easy for me to get to after camping out with the cub scouts Friday night. _________________ 1963 Beetle

Someday y'all need to go camping where I have been playing in the Pinzgauer, Iltis and 4 wheelers..
Here is a sample.. 550+ acres, all private. Waterfalls, its own powerplant, fishing in the river or a 30 acre pond, trails all over it and tons of wildlife.. Yesterday I jumped up a 300 pound Momma Bear with a Cub, 4 Deer, a dozen + wild Turkeys and 3 Coyotes..

You can camp right on the river.. If you want to go, let me know and I can arrange it for you.. _________________ Jake Raby

Talked with Jon (Hobug) Sunday It looks like the campout is going to be at Fort Yargo. Fort Yargo is a really nice park very shaded with Hiking trails, Putt-Putt Golf, Disk Golf, Fishing, canoeing, A beach with swimming and much more. Lots of stuff for adults and kids to do. If you are interested in fishing don't forget to get your fishing license. Here is a Link to the Park. http://www.gastateparks.org/FortYargo If you don't want to camp come anyway and hang out. _________________ 1963 Beetle

I just called Fort Yargo to reserve a campsite. It looks like they will only let you reserve a minimum of two nights. If you want just one night it is first come first served at the park the day you wan't to camp.
I am going to risk it and try for one night. If I can't camp. No big deal I will just visit till they kick me out. And if they don't kick me out I got a westy and any parking spot will do. _________________ 1963 Beetle

I tried to reserve Friday and Saturday night, but Friday is full. We can all take our chances on Saturday morning or Watson's Mill State Park has sites available both nights. Whatca think? _________________ 73 Typ481

Im not picky. Pick the one that is easiest to get reservations for. Can you reserve only one night at Watson's Mill or does it have to be two. _________________ 1963 Beetle

All the state parks require two nights if it is a weekend. _________________ 73 Typ481

As far as I can tell it is only Lil Jon and I camping. I made reservations at Hard Labor Creek State Park for Friday and Saturday nights. They have plenty of sites still available.
Come camp with us or drop by during the day on Saturday. If you come by, remember to bring your chairs and refreshments, as we may not have enough of either. _________________ 73 Typ481
