Camping - Foster Falls

This weekend Locke and I (and Abby) went camping with 3 couples from our church, the Ambrefes, the McMillians, and the Del Rios. We went to South Cumberland State Park and stayed a TVA campsite at Foster Falls. The Del Rios were kind enough to go early on Friday to secure a campsite and set up our tents for the rest of us! They also brought all the food for everyone... thank you Cathy and Luis!!

Friday night we got to the campground around 7:30 just in time for hot dogs, baked beans, and of course...s'mores! Saturday we woke to the sounds of snoring (we won't name names), a rooster, and PJ breaking a huge tree limb into pieces.... gotta love camping! We had bacon and pancakes with chocolate chips and walnuts! YUM! Then we went for a hike at Greeter Falls. The fall colors were beautiful!!! Unfortunately there hasn't been much rain around here so the falls were barely dripping. Even Abby went on the hike with us... she was such a trooper! Saturday afternoon we ate sandwiches followed by a delicious chili dinner...and of course s'mores again! Saturday night we sat around the camp fire and played an exciting game of Scategories. We had such a good time. Sunday morning we just woke up and packed up. We had a great time and hope to do it again soon.
