Camping
We camped at the Town Creek Fishing Center Campground at Lake Guntersville State Park. We love this site because it's close to all of the amenities of the Park but secluded from the busiest places.

Three views from our campsite: Saturday morning, sunset with Venus Saturday night, and a cold and foggy Sunday morning.

Outdoor Cooking
We had bacon and eggs for Saturday breakfast, we roasted brats over the fire for Saturday lunch, and had ham and cheese omelets for Sunday breakfast. Saturday dinner was Cajun Crappie in a Lemon Butter Sauce with Parsley and Steamed Broccoli.

Outdoor Life

Our Flag
Navigator Beau and his dad led a flag retirement ceremony to honor a flag flown at Beau's great-grandfather's house.
Boating & Fishing
Trailmen learned the basics of boating safety and got to captain a pontoon boat and went fishing with bald eagles soaring overhead.
Ziplining
Navigators and Adventurers had a blast on the state's longest zipline course featuring lines up to 190 feet high and 2200 feet long!
