Down on the River, the Neuse River, Over Labor Day
The missus and I spent Labor Day weekend at the KOA Holiday on the Neuse River across from New Bern. This campground is one of our favorite places to stay for many reasons. Primarily, it is close to my mother's house, and we visit her while we are there. Secondly, I spent a lot of my youth near New Bern. My grandparents lived just outside the city. I spent a week or two with them every summer. Fishing on the Trent and Neuse Rivers are some of my favorite memories of those times. We have another camping trip scheduled for this month. This one will be to a fairly new campground between Jacksonville and New Bern. We are hoping that it will be a park we can come to with our camping club. Meteorological summer has ended. Astronomical summer has another eleven days. When it will actually start to feel like fall here in eastern NC is anybody's guess.
