During our spring break excursions we visited Harrison Bay State Park. By the way, Harrison Bay is the OLDEST state park in Tennessee. I believe the park has 1200 acres, along with 40 acres of shoreline on Lake Chickamauga. I'm sure we didn't see the entire thing, but they have an Olympic-sized pool, tennis courts, fishing, camping, a playground, ping-pong tables under a pavilion, shuffleboard, you name it. It was not very crowded while we were there, but I bet it gets pretty busy in the summer! This park is about 15 minutes from our house, so maybe our friends will be able to tie in a visit to the McKinney's with a family camping trip some day!
We have had a raccoon family visiting for the past few days. We have only seen the male once, but the mom and two babies are coming so often that we named them...Coonie, Itsy and Bitz. They come because we feed a "neighborhood cat" on our deck and they help him clean his bowl. The cat was popping the little raccoons in the nose, so the mom came up with a better plan!
