Sunday, May 17 - Even though we had intermittant rain all weekend, we had a great time with our friends Julie and Barry. We went to dinner at the Rib Barn in Blairsville, then had ice cream next door in a little parlor. We went to Alexander's store and over to Vogel State park. We even fished in the pond here, but only John caught anything (three small bluegill.) We went out to breakfast at our favorite spot in Hiawassee, said goodbye, then went over to Church for a great Spirit filled service, then the monthly Fellowship Luncheon. At 6:45 PM it is still raining.
Friday, May 22 - We got our haircuts today. John got a summer cut and now can wash his hair with a washcloth. We then drove over to Unicoi State Park near Helen, Ga and fished both the lake and Smith Creek. We caught a few bream and Joan caught a nice bass. John had a trout on fishing the creek, but couldn't keep it hooked. We had a beautiful day, despite forcasts for rain. We finished up the day with a buffet dinner at the State Park Lodge, which was excellent. When we got back to the campground, which was nearly empty when we left, was nearly full of new friends.
Saturday, May 23 - We went to the Art Festival in Blueridge with our neighbors Sara and Chris. It was very nice with many booths with a wide variety of artwork. We bought some fish greeting cards. Afterwards, we had dinner at Mikes Seafoodin Blairsville, which was excellent. Finally, we enjoyed talking with Chris and Sara at their camper, under their large awning while the rain increased.
Wednesday, May 27 - We drove over to Vogel State Park for a little hiking and fishing. John caught two nice bream and Joan lost two. It rained lightly off and on, so we took the raingear in a backpack when we hiked around the lake. We also walked down by the falls below the dam, but the batteries went dead in the camera, so Joan didn't get pictures. We'll get them soon.
