May 14, 2016...... Leaving Gaffney~Heading to Maggie Valley, NC

Saturday May 14, 2016-Heading to Maggie Valley, NC
Our drive today isn't too far, that means we don't have to take off too awful early, definitely NOT before we have our Peach Fritters!!! I LOVE Sunny's Donuts! Look at the size of that fritter! We probably could have shared one!
                                                Don't ask me to share a "GOODIE"!?!

We are still in the Freightliner courtesy lot, it's just about empty now. Being a weekend, there's no appointments till Monday morning at 8:00am!

This guy arrived before we did for repairs, & he pulled out while we were preparing to leave.
These are the "new kids on the block"! Who knows.....others may join them before Monday morning line-up.
Just a minute & we'll be ready to go.....
Otis is always ready to go!
We pulled out to the top of the parking lot for a more level spot making hook-up easier!
 Our destination today is Creekwood Farms RV Park in Waynesville, NC
                                               And we're off!    Looks like smooth sailing!
                            Hmmmmm, what's with this traffic??? Hope it's not an accident.
I see construction barricades but so far no constructions workers???

           Oh my goodness! We were in congested one lane traffic for MILES for this!
                                                   Ahhhhh, smooth sailing again!
                                     And now.....the scenery is starting to get interesting!!!!

                                                         North Carolina State Line!
                                                   Looking GOOD North Carolina!!!!

                                                          Oh boy! We're there!!!!
 If these pictures look familiar, yes we've been here before, more than once. This is our favorite RV park in Maggie Valley!


                    We always request a site on the creek when we make our reservations.
                                                              Here's a happy camper!

                                                                The view behind us!


 I didn't test the creek water, but my guess would be it was cold??? Kids never seem to care!
 We will be here now for a week. Already there's a difference in the weather! We left Gaffney in shorts but now.....a cold front has moved in through the mountains! The weather man just said YOU MIGHT WANT TO PUT AN EXTRA BLANKET ON THE BED TONIGHT! When I cleaned the RV in preparation of leaving for the season, I took the electric blanket off the bed & put it away thinking we won't need it till October! Maybe we should let Otis sleep with us tonight for extra warmth!?!
Hey!!!! I like the sound of that idea!

I haven't looked at Lennie's itinerary so I don't really no what's in store for this week. Guess we'll find out together!?!

  2. Hi, I am going to try this again....Maybe have Fred help me...One of my favorite spots in the mountains, love Waynesville and Maggie Valley. Are you going into Cherokee and over the mountain to Gatlinburg while you are there. The elk are usually out in the GSMNP just outside of Cherokee. Not sure if this is the time of year but it is fun to see them.
