Camp life

This was the first weekend we've spent at the camp since the beginning of its construction (which was at some point last year).  It was absolutely fantastic and a much needed escape from Mobile for a short weekend. The difference between the two camps is incredible. I feel so relaxed at this new place. It's absolutely perfect.
Before construction:

The original house is located on an old homestead in rural Perry County, MS, just east of Hattiesburg. It was  a great place for a camp weekend (and has stories to back it up), definitely rustic but, charming as well.  Tom's parents had discussed building a new camp for years, and with the increasing battles with snakes and rodents in the old house (and more importantly, a growing family as we are to welcome a new niece or nephew sometime in late November!), this could not have come at a better time.
After construction:

Absolutely serene.  To top it off? Check out this view.

I hope your weekend was as relaxing as mine!
