Tomorrow begins my trip to Smithgall Woods State Park to meet up with Jimmie and Stephen. We’ve planned this trip ever since our first visit and we made reservations at the same cabin we had last time at least six months ago if not longer.
I’m not sure any of us are up to hiking. I have no stamina, Jimmie has hip problems and Stephen gets out of breath. Looks like we will have to enjoy temps in the 3o’s and 40’s at night with a fire crackling in the two fireplaces, doing some star gazing, and, of course, dining out in Helen. Hopefully the fall colors will still be around.
I managed to get most of the items on my “to do” list completed. It’s been a busy and exhausting day. I think I’m pretty much packed and I hope to get out of town around 10 am. It should be about a five hour drive to Jacksonville where I’ll spend one night.
The one problem I ran into is choice of clothes. There’s gonna be some cold days and nights and those clothes are bulky. I think it’ll all fit in my suitcase.
Stay tuned for the trip!
