We are heading out next Wednesday for the long weekend to Table Rock SP in the NW corner of South Carolina.  Looking forward to getting in a couple of good day hikes while we are there.
 
Where's everyone else going?

I tend to be a grump in crowded campgrounds on long weekends. We will stay home and go another time this summer.

In Canada our national holiday, Canada Day, is on the 1st of July so this weekend is the long weekend. My wife and I had plans to take the trailer to a piece of lakefront property her family has on Lake George here in New Brunswick. We put in a 30 amp outlet and water line. but I does not look like the weather is going to co-operate. Rain all day today and tomorrow. We may go up for Sunday and Monday.

Lake George is a beautiful place in an wonderful Provence.  I hope to get back there again in the next few years, and on to Nova Scotia.  I can't get Digby scallops here!

It is funny. In 1982 I did my Basic Training for the Canadian Armed forces in Cornwallis, Nova Scotia. Just down the road from Digby. that is the first time I had Digby Scallops. I never got back to the the Maritime provinces again until 12 years ago when I moved to New Brunswick. I looked forward to getting Digby Scallops but all of the Scallops sold here come from The Norumberland Straight between New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island so still no Digby Scallops.

Given a choice of Digby scallops and one of those Bay of Fundy lobsters I will take the scallops. Even better would be scallops and a lobster.

We're camping with friends (not podders, but forest rivers) until Thursday morning. We're leaving for home just when the insanity starts! I don't really care for camping on holiday weekends.

We are lucky to have a great state park with a nice wooded sites, pretty little lake, beach, boat rentals, hiking, mountain biking, and equine trails, disc golf course, basketball courts and a playground, all about a half hour from our house. We're going there with our kayaks and bikes and a load of firewood and turning off our phones.

We're headed for Ruidoso, NM for some cooler weather and returning in a week. It's 104 here today and it was sure hot loading up, but it will be in the 70's in Ruidoso next week! Also, checking out towing with the new car before we head out for a couple of months near the end of July.

Just watched the news about the insane heatwave out there, hopefully it cools down before we reach NM in a few weeks.

Like others have said, holiday weekends aren't fun for us.  We'll spend the 4th with friends and then we hit the road on the 5th headed south.
