Good thing it has a camera...

... since my iPhone was the only piece of technology I remembered to bring with me on our camping weekend.

Ok, I lie, I brought my Kindle too. And a computer for the kids to watch a movie on (which they never did), and a toaster oven (which stays in the camper and never gets used)... but you get my point.

I forgot the cameras. No evidence whatsoever of our family camping trip to Ellijay this weekend for the Apple Pickin' Festival except for these gems captured via an Apple device *har har*:

Liberty, in the petting zoo, chasing a bunny and yelling "Hold you!  Hold you!"
Napping after all the orchard shenanigans

Chris's nap didn't look as peaceful

We camped at the Diamond Lure RV Campground and I would definitely recommend it! They had a good selection of campsites and nice, clean amenities like bathrooms/showers, laundry room, reading room, and a good outdoor space with a little beach front, pavilion with tables and grill, basic swingset, trampoline, and horseshoe pits.  It was just in general a nice, family friendly place. They even brought around free extra wood for campfires when the temperature started dropping Saturday night. Great people, good price, and extremely convenient to 2 of the 3 big apple houses in Ellijay.  I'm thinking maybe this will become an annual event for our family! 

Maybe next year I'll even bring the camera(s).

  1. Camping and kindles go hand in hand, for sure! I just had to come comment after your sweet note on my blog because it seriously made me laugh out loud. Thanks for that :)
