Weekend Get Away - Ft Hamby

We arrived Thursday at Ft. Hamby near Wilkesboro, and for the first time we got caught in two different traffic backups, which added one plus hours to the travel time.  

When we arrived we were told they had a play going on at the amphitheater about Tom Dooley, which we went to.  I never realized the song from Kingston Trio was based on a true story.

Yesterday I made the hike to the little water fall here at Ft. Hamby, but I can't find where my phone stored the picture, maybe I didn't save it.

Ft. Hamby is COE campground, and we are in campsite #21. We have been at this site 2-3 time before.  Sites are level and have lots of space around them, sites have water and 30/50 amp service.

The best part is with the America The Beautiful (Senior Pass) a three night stay is only $36.
