Brevard NC - Davidson River CG 8-4-15 Tuesday - 8-5-15 Wednesday

Brevard – Davidson River CG 8-4-15 Tuesday The temperature was 66 this morning when we did our walk at 7:30AM. We are at 2150' elevation and in a forest of tall shade trees. Nice!

After breakfast we went to Hendersonville to check out a couple of campgrounds in the area. As we were leaving Davidson River campground we saw a white squirrel.

Then we stopped at a McDonald's to use their WiFi to update the Blog and checkup on email. There aren't any WiFi in the campground and the cell phone signal is very weak. After getting everything caught us we decided to go to Lake Lure to check out a RV Resort where the sites are privately owned but some of the owners rent them out when there are not using them. We found one we might rent in the future.

We stopped for lunch in Chimney Rock before returning to the campground. We passed several apple orchards on the return trip. Hendersonville area is the apple capital of North Carolina.

Brevard – Davidson River CG 8-5-15 Wednesday We did a longer walk this morning before having breakfast. The temperature was again 66 degrees when we got up. We bought a bundle of firewood so we could have a campfire this evening. Later in the morning we rode our bicycles for awhile in the campground and out to the Jobs Corps grounds outside the campground.

I cooked my “almost world famous” potatoes and sausage in my cast iron pot for supper and enjoyed the campfire until about 9:30PM before calling it a night. These last 3 days has been very relaxing. Tomorrow we move to Marion NC to attend the North Carolina Bluegrass/Gospel Festival.
