Whoo-o-e-e-e... beautiful !

We're here !  We love it !
The closest town is Brevard, NC, ten miles away. The campground is up on some hills, fairly heavily wooded, on the shores of two separate lakes .. one quite small for swimming (with a sandy beach), and another larger one for fishing, canoeing, etc.

We are about halfway between Greenville, SC and Asheville, NC .... and not too far from Hendersonville, NC.

One thing for sure, our leg strength will improve walking up and down these hills.  Everything is either up or down a hill to get to.... and even when you go down... you must come back up.

Tomorrow is our first day of orientation to be an "official camp host".  We even have tan shirts to wear, with arm patches from the Forestry Service .... looking official.  We had to take a golf cart driving test today :)
There are 12 people (counting the site managers) who will be hosting, and all our campers are close by each other, so it really is like a family..... everyone seems very nice and friendly.

Forgot to mention my Verizon phone is the only reception we get.... and sometimes that is iffy.  Internet seems ok though.... thank goodness.

More later, Marilyn
