Just got back from a week long "camping" trip with my little 17' pull-behind trailer to Hendersonville, NC where I went to Chimney Rock State Park and DuPont State Forest for some hiking and "down time."

Hello Aunty

I enjoyed your pics and would like to see a picture of your 17' trailer.

Just posted some more pictures with a shot of my trailer at the end. It looks bigger when not between two huge motorhomes. :D :D

It's big enough for me and my traveling companion - Annie, the Beagle. Thanks for looking and your kind comments.

Having climbed those stairs took a lot of energy out of me, and there was a thunderstorm brewing, so Annie and I headed back to the camper. I would also love to go back and do the Hickory Nut Falls trail sometime. It is a very beautiful area, and I hope you get to go back there. DuPont State Forest is really worth the visit. High Falls is accessible from the visitor center up the hill, and Hooker and Triple Falls are accessible from the Hooker Falls parking lot about half way up. The rhododendrons are thick as ticks in the forest, and I would have loved to have gotten there early May to see them blooming.

I'm sitting here looking out the window at Pikes Peak, but I gotta admit that NC has beautiful mountains!
