Camping in Flintstone, MD
We went camping in Flintstone, MD a few weekends ago and had so much fun. We have a 5th wheel back home, and the kids were just devastated to not do any camping this summer. So...Les, decided to go out and buy a tent. The BIGGEST and of course BEST tent he could find. HA HA. We haven't tent camped in probably 7-8 years. This thing was like a mansion. You could stand up in it, fit two queen size air mattresses in it, and still have a ton of room. Our little camping trip turned into "Glamping" (or glamour camping). There was a catch and release pond, swimming pool, Bingo pavilion, volleyball, gaming and pool table room, etc etc. It was a lot of fun. That night it thunderstormed and rained pretty hard, but with our glamp tent, we stayed dry. Later the next day we drove back to Paw Paw for a company pig roast....and found disaster. WV as well as the boardering states east had experienced a major storm. Trees were down every where, and the town or as you have it 6 counties had lost power. The whole town shut down. No electricity means no gas, ice, stores, etc. We thankfully were out of power for 2 1/2 days. Many towns (including the suburbs of DC) are still out of power nearly 2 weeks later. What's terrible...is the weather had been in the 100's. It was quite miserable.
