Campfire Club Day 2 1/2

We reluctantly left the Tom Johnson Campground in Marion, NC.  It is a magical campground that connects campers to the natural world.  It is located close to many of the Western NC area attractions allowing convenient access to the Blue Ridge Parkway and outdoor activities in the area like hiking, swimming, fishing.  You can visit these attractions galore, or just relax in the campground and watch the sun setting over the mountains. 

Driving from Marion to Asheville is a feast for the eyes looking out over the rolling mountain ranges.  You imagine yourself arriving in a new world full of possibilities. The motorhome was just getting warmed up when we were arriving at Rutledge Lake RV Resort.  Rutledge Lake is a nice campground with lots of activities to enjoy like fishing, canoe/kayaks/paddle boats, a heated pool, playground and rec center.  It was late in the day so we were only able to take advantage of a little fishing before it was time for dinner and some campfire stories. 

Alex casting for the big one!
