Weather is always around

We have had great weather here in N Georgia for the past few days - low humidity and cooling temps.
We are heading out to NE Georgia mountains for a few days and as I look at the weather report I see most of N Georgia with rain on up into N Carolina.
Don't mind the rain so much but hate to set up in the rain. This is our first outing since this COVID mess got started and we are having to re-learn every detail for packing and traveling. Going to be fun, even in the rain
  • There is a boating rule that applies equally to camping.

    Never let the weather win.
  • We were in Helen Ga 12 years ago for the first time. As soon as we got there it began to drizzle and it did for the entire time we were there. We still talk about what a wonderful time we had in the rain.
  • I always have rain gear handy in case the need is there... My thought has always been, if it's pouring ass rain when I pull in, I'll just get it parked and then see if it lets up.. If it ain't gonna let up, then pull on the gear or decide if I'm even staying there... :)

    I've left early for weather before, but have been lucky on at least setting up.

    Different parts of the county makes a huge difference too.. I'm in the NW, so you know basically what to expect for the most part.. If I went to the SE, I'd have no clue! ha, ha!

    Good luck! Mitch

    Thats the spirit! Cook under the awning, have a cold adult drink and play some tunes (quietly)..and if the rain stops all the better! :C

    Enjoy your trip and safe travels!
