Uchee Creek Lodge

The Class C motor home we bought showed up just in time for us to take a short overnight trip this past weekend. We loaded it with all of our "must haves" Friday night. The girls were up bright and early Saturday morning...ready to go! Lake Eufaula had been our destination but reservations, 2 night minimums, 4 days notice put a halt to that. Back up plan, Uchee Creek just outside of Ft. Benning, Georgia.

On the road! (the dogs were a little weirded out by the moving house)


The girls loved sitting at the table. Arts, crafts, books, and games.


EG decided she'd rather lay down on the couch.


After a 3ish hour drive (we stopped and made lunch) we arrived at the lake.


It's deer hunting season so all the deer were in the campground. Everywhere.


Sunday morning walk.


The leaves on the trees were Beautiful!


We see helicopters of different sizes and shapes everywhere back home. But a C17...wow! These things are huge! EG took off running..."look moooooooommmma"




She stood there until that monster plane was out of sight.


Poor Abigail hasn't been fishing in about 3 years. So we rented a boat and took the girls fishing. EG's first time :)


Out on the boat here comes a C130. Dropping airborne trainees.


The Chattahoochee River


Heading out.




Abigail LOVES to fish.


See! Look at that face.


Turns out EG likes it too.


Brian isn't much of a fishing fan but he IS a fan of hangin with his girls.


EG found her favorite boating activity :)


After a fun filled camping experience we headed home. Abigail retreated to the bedroom to work on her independent study. I turned around to check on her and found this.


I'm glad we didn't go to Lake Eufaula. Uchee Creek is an awesome place! We may even head back this weekend.....
