First trip of the year!

Mushrooms.. my one and only alergy. Well, besides ragweed. 

Got back from first outing for 2012, went to Hoosier Nat Forest. Perfect weather no need for a/c. Thursday night, all day Friday, Friday night and then hook up and go, got home around 2pm. Great weather. We did a lot of walking and tried to eat smart, I wanted fried eggs, bacon, toast, fried potato's for breakfast, but Donna is doing really well with weight watchers so we did fresh cubed fruit, rye toast and it was really good. Some one on this site gave me a tip to try the Coleman fold and go gas grill, this little unit is perfect, did hamburgers with sauteed yellow/red peppers, white onion came out great, easy to clean, you can close the lid and hold in the heat, am looking forward to using it again. We may hit it again this upcoming weekend and have made reservations for the future on line. Recreation.gov is a great sight and easy to navagate, it shows federal parks and recreation area. Love the fresh air, I even caught 4 fish from the bank, small bass and bluegill, have to leave the fishing boat at home when we are podding, thats ok, thats a good trade off. looking forward to the next poding adventure.

BAHH! If you had come to O'Bannon Woods, I would have hooked you up with the aroma of thick sliced hickory smoked bacon, tater's and onions, farm fresh, laid Thursday eggs, and whole wheat toast..  As I age, I refuse to give up what got me here.... I just don't have 6 slaices of bacon and four eggs and 4 pieces of toast, with grits, biscuit and gravy any more.

Oh, and showers.. lol, weather said "chance of showers" Sat eve.. started "showering" about 7pm.. was tsill showering when we broke camp at 2pm Sun.

Furpod, O Bannon woods is in the same county Donna and I live in, Harrison. It is about 25 or 30 minutes from our house, we drove through it last fall when the leaves were off and the sites looked a little close, I could not tell if they were electric sites, I think we drove through during deer season and I may not have got a good look at the layout. Gosh, I can smell that bacon cooking all the way down to Celina lake. I grew up on my grandfather and grandmothers farm in Harrison co and got every morning to bacon, eggs and toast right before we milked the cows. We have not tried O/B Woods yet, also there is Buffalo trace east of Palmyra, north on 135 to Pal, east on 150, 1/4 mile on left, lots of stuff to do for kids, nice sized lake and shady camp sights, reasonable prices, anything close to your home ? Keep On Poddin all.
