    Lazy night on a lazy river in So. GA

    Did a small overnighter in South Georgia next to a lazy river.
    Originally posted it for a BushcraftUSA outing but figured I'd share here as well.

    I read the subject and said to myself "wait a minute I don't remember this outing ". Then I watched your video and figured out what ya meant (ok my poor attempt at sarcasm)

    However that was a great video, looked like a real fun trip and I always enjoy camping next to a lazy river and following it's road through the woods. Thanks for taking us along on your journey and I look forward to your next video.

    Peace

    but never quite catch the tune
    Stars fall down in buckets like rain
    till there ain't no standin' room
    Bright blue boxcars train by train
    clatter while dreams unfold
    Way down
    down along
    Lazy River Road"
    (The Annotated Lyrics to Lazy River Road)
    Sometimes I like to hike and think, And sometimes I just like to hike.

    Hiking is'ent about waiting for the storm to pass its about learning to hike in the rain.

    Looks like a very nice spot. Nice that you can find that red fuzzy stuff (palmetto??), locally for tinder.

    Hey thanks lazy, I enjoyed the documenting just as much as the actual trip itself. I was fortunate to have good warn weather all night, but was prepped for a fire if it wasn't.
    I had over 2 gigs worth of video to edit through. Finally got the last of it uploaded last night.

    We all have our own lazy river we're drawn to...

    Glad you enjoyed it.

    Dude the palmettos are everywhere... Theres also some black moss that takes a spark well and a cream colored moss, but not too much of that around near the riverbanks.

    Very nice river, nice camp site and a cool little lizard! Yes dear. lol The lesson there is to walk until you are out of phone range, then set up camp. Nice coffee from the hammock drinking technique! Thanks for the video, Shnick!
