Come one, Come all to Kimmie Land where Love, Hearts and Rainbow Farts abound!

It is a land unto itself. A happy place where MPR covers all and randomly singing nonsensical syllables while wandering around is completely acceptable.

Rub it in Lou.  I would work at Turner Field if I lived that close!  "Ice cold BEEEAHHH!!!"  

That is wrong. :rofl2:  
 
I have to admit I was a little afraid to open a Dave thread after that other experience tonite.  

Braves win!!! ATL 6  PHI 4.  :banana:

I am boycotting any projects that interfere with my www shenanigans.    You can find me in the party tent, by the pool or  Bay Lake.  That is.... if I am not at TE stuffing my face with a Lone Rider.  (aka GAG for one)

I agree.  You and CP look nothing like Sand People.
 
 
Congrats on the new career opportunity! I wish you all the best!

Ever been to Carowinds?  Exchange the crappy biker bar and devil waitress for a Whirlybird and clueless staff who will put your children in danger and you've got it.

Fun but no magic.. yep, that sums it up.  
 
Little H was so upset but he rose to the challenge and handled the situation very well in spite of being scared (mostly b/c he knew he was in charge of G) .  I  tell him all the time what a great husband and dad he will be one day.  He has a heart of gold.  The jury is still out on Big H.  Much work still to be done.
 
Oh how cool!  I got a photo of the DaveinTN proposal spot!  I call bragging rights!!  This TR found a little magic afterall... :)

Don't let Linda Blair fool you.... she's tricky like that.     J/K  No, I haven't had the pleasure of meeting your Linda Blair, I am sure her head doesn't spin.  At least I hope not.
 
I'm not going to discuss not being at the Fort.  I am not going to depress myself. Think happy thoughts... 
 
 
The rest of the photos are uploading to Photobucket. When they're done I'll hopefully get another update in before I need to pick up G from his grandparent's house.

I loves it three. :heart:

By Jove I think she's got it!!  Thanks Carol!  
 
Sorry to interrupt your TR Nicki! But I really wanted to be in it! :rofl2:
 
 
Carry on...

I wasn't aware that he had one.  :rofl2:
 
 
You're on!

There is always WWW 2014!  Wheeeee!
 
 
 
Can't believe I didn't grab a random stranger! What was I thinking!

Kimmie don't do swings either.   I don't like heights when I don't feel securely confined.  Legs hanging loose while that high is not cool.  I will ride ToT over and over though bc I feel safe in the "elevator".  Go figure.

Love the report! The nature center looks like a wonderful place!  I agree that the bobcat photos are great but my fave is the raccoon with the cracker jack box.  :rofl2:  Our family has plenty of raccoon stories from our years growing up camping.  
 
Do you realize how hard it was not to make a Red Fox joke?  It was hard.

If you're so tired of the "Total Immersion, Magical Experience" thing.... Then this TR is for you.  There will be none of that nonsense here.
 
This weekend H, Lil H, Gabe and I headed out for CAMP Wilderness at Carowinds... not to be confused with that magical place everyone keeps talking about.  Don't get me wrong.  It was fun.  But not magical.  
 
Many of you will remember that our camper was in a hayfield for a year.  It has now been home for almost a year and a half but has not been to a real campground since it's return..... until now.   Soooooo of course there were gonna be problems on it's first time out of the yard.
 
The slide out wouldn't slide out.
 
The power jack wouldn't do what power jacks are supposed to do.
 
H had to work right up until departure day so that left me with the boys, G's appointments and no time to pack, clean the camper or shop for any semblance of grocery items.  Oh well.  At least H and KFbro were able to tackle the issues at hand and we threw clothes into a suitcase,  packed cameras, linens, towels and toilet paper and we were off.  
 
 
This is my attempt at a photo of the entrance sign ... Fail.
 
  

 
 
Coasters in the distance.
 

 

 
 
Ahhhhh !!! Here at last!  That 2.5 hour drive is a killer!
 

 
 
We never make it to the campground pool but it did look pretty nice (this is not a good pic) and there was a lifeguard on duty.
 

 
I didn't think to get a photo of our campsite after we got all set up but I did take some on our last day so those will come later.  After we set up we were starving as we'd had donuts for breakfast and crackers for lunch.  Not my proudest moment as a wife and mother... so we set our sails for Chic Fil A.  On our way back out of the camp ground I spotted this....
 

 
That is a waterslide at the waterpark.  Instantly I remembered something.  KFBro (who was the inspiration for Gaston) warned me not to ride the tall black tube slide under any circumstance.  That looked like the one.   When KFBro issues such a warning... KFK listens.  It looked worse up close.
 
We were apparently very near the airport so we saw a lot of planes flying over.  I attempted a photo or two.  
 
Fail.
 

 

 
 
The plane photos may have been a failure but I can spot the more important things in life...
 

 
Truck photos.  Lil H was sooo tired he couldn't stay upright for the short distance to Chic Fil A.  Maybe it was the hunger.. I don't know for sure.
 

 
 

 
 
Big H
 

 
We ate our food so fast I didnt' have time to take any pood forn photos. But y'all know what chicken looks like anyway.    I did take a couple of cute pics of the boys in the play area.
 

 
 

 
After we ate we headed for Wal Mart for a few items.  A few items turned into a lot of items.  When we came oit there was as beautiful crescent moon.  I call those Carolina Moons.
 
On our big screen TV you can actually see the craters around the middle of the moon.
 
 

 
Another shot using a different camera mode.
 

 
We headed back to CAMP Wilderness for a little R and R because we had a big day ahead of us!
 
 

And one more thing...  
 
 
FA-TANG!!!!

Ahem... correction.  I am so hurt. ;D
