My husband got a new schedule at work, he will be working Fri/Sat/Sun all summer so we won't be able to camp much--so we decided to go ahead and take advantage of his weekends off right now. Even if it's still pretty cold at night, it is nice during the day.
Shoal Creek campground on Lake Lanier is about 5 miles from our house so we deemed it to be the safest place to spend our first camping trip without friends. We could easily run home if we forgot or needed anything! Camping here is expensive ($48/night lakefront) but really convenient.
We got here pretty soon after work, pulled into our pull-through site (love!) and set up in less than 30 minutes.
We were right on the water, it was beautiful at sunset!
We put some chili in the crockpot but it took a very long to begin to get warm so we microwaved it and then watched a movie and went to bed.
In the morning we let the dogs out and cooked breakfast--egg, cheese & turkey bacon sandwiches, a camping tradition for us.
We walked the dogs to the bath house and laid in bed most of the day.
Michael's dad came by and took us out in his boat for a sunset cruise.
The view of our camper from the water.
Because it was pretty cool weather there weren't many boats out, the water was very peaceful.
Great sunset...
Later we grilled some turkey sausage and made mashed potatoes and peas in the microwave. Michael's dad made us a bonfire and we made made some s'mores. We slept in on Sunday and left at a leisurely pace.
