photo friday: georgia veterans state park

ga veterans - 4 jun 2012

After our Saturday morning hike at Ocmulgee National Monument, we headed south to Georgia Veterans State Park. Silly us, we had brought our own watermelon to south Georgia. We saw BUSLOADS of watermelons as we drove the backroads to the park. Truly and honestly, busloads. One day, I want to get pictures of these buses filled with watermelons.

I wish I could say we had a lovely time, but, despite our efforts, we didn’t. It was HOT, humid and buggy. Chloe and I took about six showers each while we were there in desperate attempts to cool off. We even packed up Evie in order to drive twenty miles into town just to get cold drinks, ice and ice cream. The campground was a bit on the loud side Saturday night, but it quieted down on Sunday night, thankfully.

We *did* enjoy biking around the park, swimming in the lake, looking at the airplanes and tanks, and touring the museum. I doubt we’d return in the “high” season, but I think a weekend in the spring or fall could be a lot of fun.

This is an entry for Delicious Baby’s Photo Friday.
