Williamsburg, VA






We arrived in Williamsburg about a week early for our camp out and were surprised to find our friends Trish and Mickey there early as well. We planned to take some trips to Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown.

We spent a couple of days seeing some of the sights in and around Williamsburg and Jamestown.





The Williamsburg OLC camp out was hosted by James and Roberta Ringstaff and it was a big success. We had about 25 OLC members there from all over the country. There was a lot of good fellowship, food and of course an old time bond fire each night. The weather was not bad although we did get a few showers but not enough to dampen the spirits of the campers. We had a chance to put a face to those we had talked to and become friends with in the OLC chat room. That was great and well worth the time to travel to the camp out. Roberta is already talking about having another one next year. When the time came to leave it was like leaving "family".

We left and headed to the Smokies to see an old friend before she and her husband left to hit the "red roads". She was really glad to see us and each night we got together around a camp fire and talked about all sorts of things. The fall decorations were beautiful.
