Today is apparently catch up day on the Tramper Travels blog! There are three posts scheduled for today, with this being the last.

On the weekend of April 6, we did a quick camping trip with John and Mary (our Alaska/Canada travel partners). We went to Florence Marina State Park in Omaha, Georgia and had a great time. Yep. There really is an Omaha, Georgia!

We spent time hanging out, eating (very well), hiking, photographing, fishing (well, trying to anyway), and discussing our upcoming trip to Alaska/Cananda.

This camping trip was during the 2024 eclipse, and while we didn’t have totality, I believe we were somewhere around 85%, and it is pretty neat. I wasn’t set for eclipse pictures, but that’s okay. We just enjoyed it in person.

Internet wasn’t the best, and our phones really had a hard time deciding if we were in Central time or Eastern time. One of the pictures below shows mine and Mike’s phones sitting next to each other — one with Central time and one with Eastern time. Good thing we don’t really need to worry about time when camping!

All in all, we all thoroughly enjoyed our first camping trip together, and we decided that we were ready to hit the road together in June!

Pictures do not have individual captions, but you get the idea!
