Hi Friends…
I hope you aren’t tired of the beautiful scenery because I have more vacation water pics for you today!
When it’s hot… you don’t get on the bike…you go find water! So that’s just what we did.
Jonathan creek runs through Maggie Valley. It ran behind our campground and then across the street and behind Tammy and Bills Hotel. What to do?
GET IN!
This creek is raging! It’s awesome! And cold because it’s mountain water! Brrrrrr!
The creek forks right behind the hotel… Tammy and I explored both left and right. And this creek is ROCKY! not little rocks. Big rocks! Boulders under that raging water!! It was a workout!
Trying to keep my balance!
Just having a blast!
Thirsty?
Need to keep your tiny drinks from floating away?
Want to keep them cool?
Build them a river cooler. ;o)
All natural! ;o)
What a perfect day!
You have to find just the right rocks!
Our cooler from the hotel balcony.
Now a tiny fishy sanctuary.
The leetle fishies came as soon as we built it.
They were so tiny and cute! I hope our little habitat is still there protecting them!
We always leave it as we found it… but this time we left a little extra for the wildlife!
The guys, Bill and Shane, watching us be silly in the creek! They hiked up the creek and climbed out onto that deck. While Tammy and I wasted our day away hiking the creek and building coolers/fishie habitats they wasted their day away sitting in chairs in the creek drinking beer.
Really… could you ask for a better vacation?
Um… no! Greatest ever!
What a beautiful place!
Until next time…
Carmen and the Primcats

Maggie Valley is a wonderful place. Looks like you had fun and that is so important.
OMG that looks like so much fun, just like when I was a littler kid! Let me know next time you're going.
By the way, Patti said that if you guys bring your toy hauler and Tracy to Lancaster, PA. that you can park it behind her barn and plug in electric for free while you're there.
Hi Carmen. I have so enjoyed the photos from your trip. We have been vacationing in those parts since I was a child. Were they cooking in the old log kitchen when you visited? We got to taste biscuits one time we were ther and they were wonderful. Thanks for sharing. Makes me want to go back. H ope your week will be a good one
