Love Alabama winters!

This past weekend we,along 3 other couples, met up at Gunterhill
C.O.E. Campground just outside of Montgomery for a very relaxing weekend of "winter" camping. With lows in the uppers 30's and highs
at mid 70s it was a near perfect weekend. One of the guys in our group was in a tent.
The campground is close enough that I could drive into work on Friday and be back out in time for a big bowl of chili for dinner. There were only about 15 campers in the whole park so it was very peaceful and the deer and waterfowl were abundant.
Yup, I love Alabama winters, Now we just have to blow air through the water lines and wait for the next "itch"... maybe three weeks.

  • High 30s and mid 70s is what we expect during the summer in the mountains. Winter time and we can't even get up there. Must be nice to be camping now.
  • Other parks we like in the area are Ft. Toulouse National Historic Park Campground at Wetumpka and Sherling Lake in Greenville AL. My ancestors are from Butler Co AL and we also love it there. Nothing like chili next to the campfire!
