Our camp site on Firefly Loop
This campground is without a doubt a jewel in the crown of the National Forest service camping areas. A number of years ago, the Forest Service closed this area and came in and did a major renovation. All 52 campsites are full hookup and they maintained the normal separation of campsites like all national forests. As you can tell from the picture above, we have all the privacy we want. The campground also has a day use area with a large pavilion and a swim beach. It is about 2 miles from our site to the other end of the park where the swim beach is and it is covered in grass which we are responsible for mowing.

Most of our time is spent cleaning campsites after people leave and yes, we clean toilets. We have 5 bathroom and shower facilities on site all with flush toilets and hot water which get cleaned everyday.

Considering that campers can only stay 2 weeks here before they have to leave, we feel very blessed that we get to camp here for a total of about 4 months and not costing us a thing but a little work. Pretty sweet deal!There are numerous interesting things in the are to see and we are trying to get out on our days off to go see them. We went to Natural Bridge which is about 18 miles away last week and really enjoyed it. The span is approx. 127 feet and is the longest span east of the Rockies.

The hike around the natural bridge area is just over a mile with a small stream running through it. We decided to take the loop and am very happy to report that Stephanie's hip did very well up and down the trail and back and forth across the stream.
Our next adventure is much closer to home. The web page for the Corinth Recreation area talks about an old abandoned trail along the lake edge where both confederate and union forces from the civil war etched their names into a rock wall. We intend on finding it.
