Quick Update On Our Whereabouts

Since the last post we have covered quite a bit of ground on our way back to Virginia for the Holidays.  We haven't been out and about that much because it has been mostly cold and rainy for much of the past few weeks.  We are currently in Shelby, NC waiting for a winter storm to hit - we are scheduled to leave Monday but may have to stay over an extra day if the roads are not clear. 

Our Route & Campgrounds

 The following are misc. photos from the past few weeks.

Did I mention we have had a lot of rain - the trees are on an island

This was our favorite site of the past few weeks - South Cove County Park Campground is on an island on Lake Keowee in Seneca, SC (near Clemson, SC).  Our site was at the very tip of the island (this campsite was added recently so it doesn't show up on the satellite view - see next image)

White Oak Creek Campground - Eufaula, Alabama

We arrived at White Oak Creek campground on Tuesday afternoon with no problems.  The campground is located on Walter F. George Lake (aka Lake Eufaula) which is an 85 mile long reservoir with 640 miles of shoreline that was created by the Army Corps Of Engineers in the 1960's.  We feel fortunate that we have a campsite right on the water on the main lake (many of the campsites are on the adjacent White Oak Creek).  The campground is just gorgeous, very clean, well maintained and well designed - it is our favorite place that we have stayed so far.   Our RV is about 20 feet from the water  between a common area and a beach.
