The storms have passed, but Norris Lake in Tennessee is certainly over flood stage.
Yes, that is the top of the fence sticking out above the water - and, yes, the fence lines that road that is way under water.
Sitting on this bench did not seem particularly inviting.
And this camp site did not quite seem the right one for us.
Despite the pictures, most of the camp ground is in great shape. We are high and dry and enjoying a long camping weekend. Our camp site looks more like this:
Relaxed in our camp site.
And, yes, for those of you who counted, Ruby and Tartok (and the hu-grandmom) from The Herd Annex are also camping with us.

What Weather When?
March 26, 2023
How do you dress for a day in the Western North Carolina Mountains? Just answer what weather when? Good luck with that.
Way Back Wednesday
Each week, we reach back into our vault of over 4,700 previous posts and share a favorite. We hope you enjoy this look back.
The Queen and Decorum
Even after a long hike, a Queen must always avoid a fashion faux pas like, say, an out of place tongue. No, the Queen and Decorum are intact.
Ooo exciting a camping trip!
Good choice not to take the flooded site with the floating seat!
Licks and lots of slobber,

That flood thing is a definite YIKES!!!
But we love the scenery, its so beautiful and colorful!
Cheers,

I definitely thought I counted 8 fuzzy butts! You are having floods like we had over Christmas.
So glad you are all safe and dry. The dogs look so happy to be camping!
That is a lot of water. Glad the rest of the camp area is okay though. Have fun and stay safe! 🙂
It will be a wonderful camping weekend – so nice to make it one big family gathering.
Woos ~ Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara
I will join the group. I too was counting and wondering when you adopted two more. Have a wonderful weekend and stay dry!
Such terrible storms! Hope you have a safe and dry camping trip!
Wow, Guess you could always go swimming!
Hope you stay dry and enjoy your weekend!
take care
Clive and Murray

BOL!! We DID count!! is 8 enough??
Yuck! I’m sick of all the rain and flooding. I’m glad you guys are okay and found a nice campsite. 🙂
That is SO COOL that Ruby and Tartok (and the hu-grandmom!) got to go with you! Have a blast, everypup!
Play bows,

Advice for a multiple dog family, we rarely travel with more than two.
Where do you put these guys at night? How do they travel in the motor home.
I would love to know some of your tricks. I’m totally jealous. :o)))
are you SURE you don’t want to sit on that bench?

I had a feeling the Herd Annex would be joining you! The flooding has been pretty intense. We passed through Indiana and Ohio yesterday and it seems to be the same story everywhere. I can’t wait to see all the fun you have while you’re on your trip!
Those are dramatic pictures. Labs just might choose the underwater campsite… so they could swim all day long!
I’m glad that you are all OK and found a nice dry campsite with *green* grass! Have fun!
LOL I did count! I did! 🙂
WE did a double-take and counted heads, do woo think woo have room fur two more? Keep those feety-feet dry!

Those look like some of the scenes from our newspaper’s website of our region –
A tornado did pass through the Ski Roundtop area – which is probably halfway between ‘here’ and where Thor and MP were dropped off by The Siberian Storks 😉
Happy Khamping!
Don’t furget to liven up the place!

That is a lot of water! Be careful, and I hope no more storms go through while you are there.
Nice campsite, and you pups look like you are getting settled in. So, is it time to get the pawty started?!
