Lake Hartwell's secret campsites

Hello everyone!!! I want to wish you all a happy and safe Memorial day, and remember that today is not about drinking and barbecue, but about all of the generations before us who fought and lost their lives and freedom to protect ours. They fought for America and many died without ever receiving recognition or the respect they deserved. Keep that in mind today when you are with your loved ones and remember those who came before you, show gratitude and respect for the freedom we have today. 

I will be traveling to an island on Lake Hartwell very soon and will be camped out for the night. I hope everyone stays tuned for all the exciting stuff I will be posting throughout the day.

Top 5 Islands to Visit Before You Die

Escape to this island paradise with me!  5. Bora Bora  The small island of Bora Bora (just 6 miles long and more than 2 miles wide) overflows with beauty. Dormant volcanoes rise up at its center and fan out into lush jungle before spilling into an aquamarine lagoon. In fact, author James Michener, who wrote "Tales of the South Pacific," called Bora Bora "the most beautiful island in the world." The 18th-century British explorer James Cook even coined it as the "pearl of the Pacific."

Many of Bora Bora's beaches are manmade and not much to write home about. The pristine lagoons are another story. 4. St. Martin - St. Maarten If you associate the Caribbean with a laid-back atmosphere, a tranquil beach and a quiet sunset, then you haven't been to feisty St. Martin and St. Maarten. W...

Top 5 Mistakes to AVOID this Summer

      We all make mistakes, but when you are hiking, or going camping, mistakes can be deadly. Anything from wearing the wrong shoes, to not having enough clean water to drink can be inconvenient at home, but in the woods it can turn into a matter of life and death. Here is my life of top 5 mistakes to AVOID this summer. 5. Over/Under Packing When getting ready to go on a hike it can be so easy to cram a weeks worth of stuff into your pack, even if you are only going for a day or two. Extra clothes, that really cute sun hat you never get to wear, towels, extra shoes etc can all add weight to your pack that you don't need or want on a long hike. While you may think it is worth the extra weight in your pack, your back and neck will be hating you for it later. Packing light and only bringing the necessities can be scary at first, but once you realize you don't NEED all of that stuff,  you will find yourself less tired and sore than you would with a heavier bag. ...
