    Hootenanny Hang IV, 2020

    We had the most beautiful weekend here in East TN for our hang. Lots of sun during the day with clear and cooler evenings. All the folks who came were so happy to have something to do and I was just as happy to see all their smiling faces!

    We did things a little different this year moving the food tents up by the camp store to leave lots of room for everyone to sit around in the shade by the pond. We liked the shelters up there so well the idea was born to build a permanent patio off the side of the store for added shelter. So the money we raised is going to help pay for that!!!

    We raised $1360 from the raffle. Part of it went to pay for next years rental fee for the campground and the rest will go to campground improvements. Last years donation paid for the new door shades over the bathroom doors and the outside sink area. it also put a fresh coat of paint on the bathhouse and camp store, it looked good!

    We cooked brats and hot dogs for Friday night and fixed a big breakfast on Saturday morning before everyone set out on their adventures. Saturday nights dinner had a Cajun theme to it and was soooo yummy! I was too busy to get pics and hope someone did!

    There was a kayak trip to the lake a few went on and several went to the Nolichucky for whitewater trips. There are lots of places to hike and explore in this area and I hope those who went will share.
    One more of the dog. She enjoyed everyone as much as I did!

    What a great weekend. Could not have ask for a more perfect hang! The weather was just right...not too hot during the day and was nice and cool at night. Was awesome seeing some old faces and meeting some new ones. Already looking forward to next year.

    Levi (Little Bear) and I travel to Unicoi, TN for the 4th annual Hootenanny Hang hosted by LD Cakes at the Blackberry Blossom Campground. We had to practice some additional food prep caution due to concerns surrounding current events. We had a blast, as always, until about 1am when Levi woke up sacred in an unfamiliar location. It took awhile to get him back to sleep, but in the end he seemed to enjoy the hammock. We plan to return again next year.
