Camp Creek State Park
West Virginia. New State! New place. Here is our camp.
There actually are other people here. We’re not really alone. (But we’ve got a really nice front yard.)
Got here in time to take a walk in the woods.
…to waterfalls.
We like it here.

Interstate 59 north through Birmingham. Into Georgia. Into Tennesseee. Through Chattanooga. Through Knoxville. 350 miles. Seemed like a long day; lots of city driving. Probably nothing like it’s going to be on the east coast when we get there though. Couldn’t find a state park or Corps of Engineers park we wanted to stay at. Stayed at a commercial park instead. Two Rivers Landing RV Resort. Crape Myrtles in bloom.
Right on the river.

Here is a picture of our states map; all the states Judy and I have been to together. (We’ve been to Hawaii, just not in the motorhome.) We’ve been working on this map for 20 years!
14 states we haven’t been to. We mean to do some damage to the states map this trip. Tomorrow, West Virginia. Two new states!

Last night’s camp at Paul B. Johnson State Park. It only cost us $14 per night. Got to love Mississippi State Parks. It was such a nice 50’ back-in with full hookups, 50 amps, and a great view. It was hard to leave. But leave we did… This is the road out of the park.
This place is so cool, the road in and out goes through water. The lake is at a constant level and the spillway goes right over the road!
So we get back on Interstate 59 and head north. Past Laurel and Meridian, Mississippi. Through the forest; longleaf pines and hardwoods. Magnolias and Crape Myrtles planted in the median; blooming. We cross over into Alabama and settle on Deerlick Creek Park Campground, a Corps of Engineers park outside Tuscaloosa, Alabama. This place is amazing. We got a 165’ level paved pull-through with 50 amp electric in the middle of the forest right above the lake.
Army Corps of Engineers campground. $11 per night! https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=201563872774147443355.0004e02f0c80f1461c0bf&msa=0&ll=37.439974,-81.430664&spn=23.476512,53.569336 Tomorrow, Tennessee (by way of the top left corner of Georgia).

Sun in the morning. Rain in the Atchafalaya. Crossed the mighty Mississippi. Turned left at Slidell. Northbound on Interstate 59. New road for us. Paul B. Johnson State Park. Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Our camp.
Our view.
