This year for the forth of July Eric and I decided to go back to the Smokies to hike Mt. Cammerer again. This year it was just him and I as my parents took the kids to be with them for a few weeks.
It was a lot different not having any kids with us and getting everything together. Because it was just just we decided to take our new backpacking tent to test it out for our overnight hiking trip we had planned for later on.
After getting everything in the car we loaded up and headed out. We had breakfast on the way so we really didn't have any stops until lunch. We did stop and switch drivers a little bit after we went through Nashville so Eric could get some sleep. After hitting some construction and a pretty bad rain storm we made it to Panda Express for lunch.
After lunch the rain had lighten up a bit which was really nice because I am not a huge fan of driving in the rain. We did hit some more construction but thankfully we made it safely to Cosby Campground.
Since it had been raining on and off all day we didn't want to take too long to set things up. Our spot was pretty much the same site we had last year, just one spot over. This way we were not up too much on a hill and it was right next to a little stream. It was a very nice spot and thankfully we were able to get everything set before it rained again!
