Arnold AFB camping trip


We took a trip over to Arnold AFB Famcamp for the weekend. Dad, Mom, and Lora went over on Friday and set up. I joined them Saturday after I got off work. Mom had been wanting to go here to see the beach that she took us to when we were young. The campground which wasn't here back then was really nice. She was a little let down by the beach which was no longer being used as a beach. We found the old Officer Club and the foundation of the pavilion and the rock wall.

After her disappointment, we headed out to Lynchburg for a tour of the Jack Daniel's distillery. That was a very good tour and we learned alot. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone. After the tour we ate lunch downtown and Mom got her fix on with shopping the square.

Back at the campground we made the last minute decision to head to church. We drove to Decherd and attended Mass at Good Shepherd Catholic church. After church we had dinner and hung out for the evening.

Saturday we got up, ate breakfast and then hung out at the swimming area. Dad and Mom took a tour of the recreation area and found the replacement for the old beach and Officer club. She was happy again because it was beautiful like she remembered.

Monday Lora headed out early for work and the rest of us headed out later. We had a great time in a nice campground with some wonderful weather.
