Tracy, I can say that we had a blast.  I was running water in the camper so we had hot showers also but now I have to re-winterize.  Oh well, it was worth it.  So many things were nice about it, have to wait until we see you guys again to gab.  Might try to find a different place for next year only due to no bath-houses.  Shady Maple was good as always.  We did lunch this time for something different.  
 
So how was you trip?

Scott, there are a couple of campgrounds on the other side of Shady maple, not sure if any of them are open this late. Oak Creek is one of them as well as Lake-in-wood, there is a third, Sun Valley is just past of Oak Creek.

My trip was good too.  Did not do any black friday shopping!!!  Spent most of Saturday looking for a campground for the eastern rally.  There are a lot of BAD campgrounds out there.  Saturday night was Thanksgiving dinner at the campground and Sunday was home made turkey with leftover soup.:D

Thanks Paula, my parents use to have a perm site at Lake in Wood for quite a few years.  Nice place although very built up over time.  Haven't been there in ages.  I believe my parents tried Oak Creek but I don't know of Sun Valley.  I will have to check that out so thanks.

NO BLACK FRIDAY SHOPPING????   I just can't believe it.  Have you done all your shopping?   I didn't do much shopping either, except at Green Dragon.

We didn't go out shopping Friday or Saturday. On Sunday, I had to take J to Port Authority in NYC. At the last minute, we (J, Kelsey and I) decided to see How the Grinch Stole Christmas. We had a nice lunch before he caught a bus back to school. On the way home, Kels and I stopped at Macy's. Sad to say, I think J reached Providence before we got home from the store. Can I say I hate shopping? And we didn't even buy Christmas presents, just dressy clothes for her to wear to sports banquets and for bball game days (the team has to wear "nice" clothes).

I haven't done ANY Christmas shopping and I also have Chris and K's bdays coming up this month. Bad, I know. I leave in about a week to go to FL to take care of my mom (she's having a hip replacement) so I'm in real trouble.
