Mountains 2012 Day 12 and 13

It was sad leaving the Mortimer campground after such a wonderful stay.   We truly love the area since it is so remote but still centrally located to great sights, hiking and waterfalls.   We are not sure when we will be able to return as trips we are planning for next summer are to new and exciting places. (more on that later)

Our nest stop will be for two nights at our friends, John and Karen Robinson in Hayesville, NC. affectionately known as the Robinson's Resort.   We will be sleeping in a real bed and doing a few loads of laundry before moving on.

We parked the Aliner, unloaded the refrigerator and started drinking margaritas while sitting on the porch.   It was relaxing afternoon.

That night, John and Karen invited over Other friends, Judy and Dick Dahl and my cousin Greg and his girlfriend Jan.   We had a great time.  It was like a Florida reunion in the mountains.

The next day was laundry day.   I will be honest that I have used only about a third of the clothes I brought.   Mostly running sheets, towels shorts and t shirts through the laundry.   The old saying about taking half the clothes and twice the amount of money comes to mind at this moment.

We enjoyed our stay but I must say the comfort of the Aliner made pressing on in our adventure that much more inviting.   After spending another great evening with John and Karen it was time to leave. We can't wait until we stay again at "Robinson's Resort".
