Cheaha State Park, Alabama

We had such a great time with children and grandchildren over Labor Day weekend.  The grandchildren weren't babies anymore. It was hard to leave Tuesday but you know the old saying "after 3 days, company begins to stink like fish.". I'm sure they were ready to return to their routine but oh it was great to be with them!

We are now at Cheaha State Park in Alabama.  We decided to stay here because it was a good location to stop before the LPGA tournament started on the 20th in Prattville.  We found it on the Internet and it had 50 amps and sewer, which no state or national park ever have.  It is the highest point in Alabama at 2400 feet.  This is a spectacular park. I encourage you to go on line and read about it. It has a motel, a lodge, cabins, chalets and a banquet area that you rent that have sleeping quarters there for yor private use.  It has 2 lakes, swimming pool, bike trails and a restaurant.  Now I will tell you that when you go for a bike ride, it's going to be downhill in one direction and uphill in the other. We haven't had the courage yet to pull out the bikes but I'm sure we will. We just have to prepare ourselves for walking and pushing the bikes halfway (ha).

The only tough thing here is the phone service and wifi.  They have been working on the campground area in the park but it's down right now so we have to drive (or maybe one day bike) down to the lodge for the wifi.  When it's not foggy we cant get phone service either except at the lodge, but not today its foggy still.

We hope all of you are doing okay and we sure miss seeing you all.
