It's really called Kings Mountain State Park, but I thought "Mountain of Kings" sounded more dramatic.

Woo! We had a weekend off. You know what that means!? Camping trip!
We didn't want to go too far during such a busy time, so we called John up and made our way to Sesquicentennial State Park in Columbia, SC. Heading to Maryland for a quick weekend? Why not make it a camping adventure!? But this time, lets save some gas and make it a tent weekend. I'm sure we remember how to do it...
In many of our previous South Carolina camping adventures, we passed this massive rock formation and wondered what it was. Well, thanks to the power of Google and its all-knowingness, we discovered it was called Table Rock and that it was a state park complete with camping! Naturally, we had to check it out.
Happy 4th of July, everyone! For the holiday weekend, we headed to Jordan Lake State Recreation Area in Apex, North Carolina. The beginning of 2020 was a busy time for the CameraCouple. We had several camping trips back to back to back, which is exactly how we like it. This weekend, we were heading to Andrew Jackson State Park in South Carolina. Get it... he was the seventh president.
For this week's installment of adventure, the Camera Couple heads to Dreher Island State Park in good ol' South Carolina.
Hooray! It's been a full year since we bought our little camper! In one year, the little home has traveled to almost all of the Northeast and even into another country! We love our little house on wheels, and what better way to celebrate one year of ownership than with a weekend in the woods!
Well it's here! After a year of being engaged the big moment has arrived. FOREVER. Cameron and I planned our wedding for July 13, 2019 up in Deer Isle. Of course, being the (now camping) Camera Couple, we had to do a destination wedding filled with a gorgeous two-week road trip. The plan was to leave from North Carolina, head up to Niagara Falls and go through Canada back down into Maine. After the wedding we planned our honeymoon for Nova Scotia! Passports get ready!!
Way back, Rose and I bought tickets to see Old Crow Medicine Show at Pisgah Brewing Company. We had never been there, or even to the area, so we decided to head out a few months early and do a scouting expedition. Other interesting sights in the area include the Blue Ridge Parkway, Catawba Falls, and Mount Mitchell: the highest peak on the east coast. What a perfect opportunity to get in some precious mountain time!
Easter weekend was here...time to get our camp on! While researching places to camp a few weekends ago I had stumbled upon the South Carolina State Park site that advertises specific months that certain State Parks are cheaper to camp at. "Camping Specials" if you will. It just so happened that Easter weekend it was Hickory Knob State Park and Resort that was the lucky winner. For one heck of a deal I booked us 3 days, 2 nights worth of what we thought would be woodsy, peaceful camping. However, what we got was one chaotic, packed, wet and just overall bummer of a weekend.
