No To Biltmore but Hello to Callaway

Biltmore Estate is like the elusive butterfly for me. We did not get to go. Unfortunately, our site at Taps RV Park was already reserved so we could not extend. Most of the parks in the area were booked - it's the Fall season you know and the leaves are really getting to their peak. Oh well, another time I hope since I already have tickets for the Biltmore Estate. Fortunately they do not expire!

We decided to head on toward Alabama and spent Wed. night at Jones RV Park on the north side of Atlanta. Not bad for a overnight and if you were wanting to tour Atlanta and the surrounding area it would be OK, but it's just a parking place - not many amenities.

Yesterday we started out with all intentions of parking somewhere in Montgomery. As we were heading south (I love that word - south, south = warm weather) on I-85 we passed a sign for Callaway Gardens - BINGO - a place that I've never been and have wanted to visit. Off the interstate we turn and ended up at Pine Mountain, GA at the Pine Mountain Campground. That's the nice thing about this lifestyle - just do it!

Pine Mountain Campground is an old KOA but nice. They have a lot of drive thru's and long ones at that. There is the normal amenities available and really nice camphosts. I like it because it's in the woods (pines) and quiet. Today we are going to Warm Springs to visit FDR's Little White House and tomorrow it's Callaway Gardens Day. I hope to get some pictures so please check back for the next post. Life is great!
