Murphy & Me

My first camping trip of the 2015 has come and gone.  My Kings Mountain Kick-Off was special for a whole bunch of reasons!  What made it especially sweet was that Murphy the Camper Dog came along. You see, just a month ago, Murphy was really, really sick.  Momma Sharon was pretty worried about her and was scared that something bad was happening.  

After a bunch of tests, an expensive surgery, some healing medicines, and a whole lot of love, Murphy made a complete recovery.  She traditionally gets to camp with us on the first outing each Spring, but I have a feeling that Momma Sharon wants her to come on every trip this year.  That's OK with me because we've camped together since the beginning!

Murphy loves to ride, likes to take walks around the campground, and is happy anywhere she is as long as it's with my Camper Mom.  That makes me happy too.  Here's a quick look at our trip to Kings Mountain State Park last weekend.  We are a couple of happy campers for sure!!

I'm already getting excited about my next trip a week from Sunday.  I get to camp with Momma Sharon, Murphy, and Pod & The Cousins! Until then, always remember . . .

Kings Mountain Kick-Off

Color me surprised that I am back here again with a Short Story.  I know that I told you I would chat with you again next year.  It wasn't that I lied, it's just that Momma Sharon went and planned an un-rally for March.  I think it's in her DNA to daydream and plan and organize these get-togethers.  She honestly cannot help it!

So here's the deal.  South Carolina State Parks ran a Black Friday special . . . 50% off the camping fees at select parks.  That meant the sites would cost as little as $8.50 a night!  Good gracious, that's almost FREE!!  When she saw that nearby Kings Mountain State Park was on the list, those camping wheels started turning.  Here's the result . . . 

That special has expired, but the regular fee of $17 per night is still a bargain.  It's not too early to pull out your 2015 calendar and pencil this in.  I would love to have you join me!!

Until I'm back again, always remember . . .
