SATURDAY MARCH 12th 2011 302647

There was no rush to leave today as we had decided to just take our time as far as Wytheville, and not do as many miles in a day as we had been doing.

Spent some time with Vince before leaving.

Left Charlotte in brilliant sunshine about 10 a.m.

Lake Norman as we leave the Charlotte area

Hope to be back next spring.

We had a good ride to Wytheville.  Did stop in town, and a very nice town too, for supplies. 

All set up at KOA Camp about 1.30 a.m.

Still nice bright and sunny.

After lunch, although now quite windy, we walked around the pond area, then hiked the mountain trail.

It felt so good to be camping like this, with time to spare to exlpore and enjoy the trails and camp.  This felt more like our type of camping.

Sat outside for a while before the wind got very cool.

Had BBQ supper, but there was still a fire ban here due to the high winds and dry bush, so once again no camp fire.   Too bad, the forecast for tomorrow, for the Pittsburg area, is for showers and cooler weather again.

Chatted with Natalie through the evening.  Did wonder how Kayleigh got on at the Science Fair, but they were not on Skype.

Played dominoes - I WON!!!  Then watched a great 50's/60's show on TV  before bed.   Night Night.
