Now now Dave, quite a few of these campgrounds do have pools, you know.   I can jest close my eyes and imagine the little kiddies splashing around and squealing as a bad pump bearing in my imaginary jacuzzi ......

Well, MM and I did that at a Microtel Inn on a rolling trip one late summer a while back.  Had a heated indoor pool and a jacuzzi and a breakfast bar with waffles and eggs and sausage and bacon.  

We camped really rough that night, really really rough, lemme tell ya.  

Right outside our patio door was a fruit tree with some ripe fruit on it, a little bit buggy but they tasted pretty good if you carefully ate around the bug holes and didn't go try to eat the middle section.

Figs or peaches, I can't remember which one.    I remember sweet and soft though.   Probably peaches.

Oh, the best part of the breakfast story was that MM was wearing his chaps as we were gonna eat and scoot --- and there were 3-4 grannies there who were eating breakfast at another table that were jest FASCINATED by MM's butt hanging out of those chaps.

Twittering to each other behind their hands and grinning like they had just got away with something.

Them grannies may be old, but they are not dead yet -- their memory works fine, I would suspect .....

MM, waffle eating, butt waggling & slow grinning granny bait ......

They wuz heart broken to see you leave, but they all clustered at the door for one last good look as you swung your leg over the seat.....

Some cloudy stuff but no rain predicted so far ......  so far so good.

Now it's beginning to bug MM a little bit,  he's wondering jest what sort of adventures we will be getting into as we go off into the wilds of Georgia .... will there be a bevy of buxom juicy young georgia peaches splashing in a mountain stream -- or just some withered grannies hanging from the branches for us to bump our heads into?

If something really neat happens, will he miss out?    

After all, if I get into any trouble with the Georgia variety of Forest Cops, he won't be there to take pictures and crack jokes about it afterwards.

 

       


If he doesn't go, I bet he misses something neat .....

Well....I am most likely headed down to the area right after my City Council meeting on Wednesday, June 15th......so I will arrive somewhere in the area on Thursday, June 16th.......around 2 AM - 5 AM!

Depending on the weather and what others are doing.....I might bring the trailer and go to Deals Gap and just sleep in my trailer......and run the Dragon a few times on Thursday morning, eat lunch, then load back up and go to Franklin......or maybe just drive directly to Franklin if the weather is bad on Thursday morning.  I don't plan on riding the bike down, as I just don't want to ride all that way from 9 PM to 3 AM.....or whatever time I am able to leave the Council meeting.

If I decide to ride......I might just leave really early in the morning so I can get into the area before noon on Thursday.

The above really depends on the weather.....and I probably won't have a final plan until the day before I leave.

I plan on riding Thursday, June 16th through about noon on Sunday June 19th.
