Andrew Jackson State Park –South Carolina

This park was in a PERFECT location. We were about 15 minutes from Waxhall where Dave and Karen DeGraff live. They just returned from Cameroon so the timing was PERFECT for a sweet catch up visit! We like PERFECT especially when it comes to seeing wonderful friends like Dave and Karen.

Karen, Dave and Chris joined us at our campsite for a barbecue., Afterwards, we had a nice walk around the small lake. Our 7 year old grandson, Knox, had already done this hike with his G-Pop. So, he was thrilled to be designated as the trail guide.

We were camped about 30 minutes from Charlotte. We picked up our 7 year old grandson who flew by himself from Tallahassee to have a 7 day adventure with G-mom and G-Top.

This campground was where Andrew Jackson grew up. There was a very interesting museum which all of us enjoyed. Knox loved hearing the stories told about this brave young man!
This little guy was up early his first morning with us raring to go on his first adventure! Love the matching sweatshirts!
This little boy LOVES pancakes, especially G-Top’s special Minnie Mouse rendition!
“Look at my muscles. I am STRONG!”
Canoe adventure on the lake! We had all 3 of us + Sunny paddling around the lake.
Peaceful
A boy and a dog! Sunny loved having someone always willing to toss the ball.

Indian Creek Campground-North Carolina

We had a great campsite next to a stream. It was so nice to hear the sound of the running water. Knox loved throwing rocks into the river and playing along the edge.

Short but fun hike to a waterfall

Elk Adventure

Our campground neighbors invited us to go with them to see the elk. It was an amazing experience! We saw so many bull elks along with cows and calves. The bulls bugled back and forth calling the cows and perhaps challenging other males for dominance.
