Flashback Friday: Roan Mountain State Park

In late June/early July, we took a family camping trip. It was our first experience at a Tennessee State Park.


Since we often camp with a group, our children aren't as excited when it's just us. However, it was quality family time despite a good bit of rain.



We took a hike...





Went swimming...



Watched some soccer....


And even attended Bible School!




I believe the church was actually Roan Creek Baptist. They served supper each night, played games, provided music, crafts and a gospel message. It was a great outreach and there were volunteers of all ages. We were blessed.



One not so fond memory of the trip was when we ran into a yellow jackets nest. They were playing in the creek and then...


Poor Java got the worst of the stings, even though  Drake and Corinna also got several stings. We gave our Java girl some Benadryl after visiting the camp store. 


Overall, we were pleased with our visit to Roan Mountain State park. It wasn't too far from Boone and Banner Elk. 

Coming up next, our fall camping trip to Boone...
