Camping in the NC

Over Labor Day weekend Meric and I went camping with some friends in western North Carolina. It was a 7 1/2 hour drive to get to the campground but well worth it because we got to see some of our Fort Bragg friends. The camp sites were nice and surrounded by trees. We were far enough away from the other campers that having the dogs loose wasn't a problem.The only odd thing about the camp ground was the cemetery. We had to pass by it on the way to the bathrooms. I understand that the cemetery is old and was there long before the campground, but it is still a little odd. Also it was surrounded by a fence that had barbed wire on top. You would think it was to keep people out of the cemetery except the barbed wire was pointed inward instead of outward. It was like they were keeping things in instead of out. Spooky!  We were camping with two other couples and one of the couples had two boys and a dog. The boys were funny and would always move their chairs so that they were either sitting next to Meric or me. The youngest boy (about 3 years old) kept referring to Meric as my dad. He would ask me where my dad was or what was my dad doing. It was really cute. The dog that they had was actually a 6 month old puppy. It reminded me of how old my dogs really are. It was nice to go drive-in camping. It has been a long time since I have done that. Usually when we go camping we go backpacking. Of course there are some people who would consider the way we live to be camping.(Sorry no pictures. We took our camera but forgot to take pictures.)
