Atlanta to Warm Springs



Monday May 14, 2018

Our trip today is only a little over 100 miles so we waited until ten am to leave Stone Mountain. That gave the commuters of Atlanta time to scamper around the beltways and clear the road for us.

Once we passed the concrete spaghetti of roadways near the airport we stopped for fuel and groceries. Fuel was from a local station and grub from Aldi’s. 




After our re-provisioning stop we took local roads the rest of the way to F. D. Roosevelt State Park. Located southwest of Atlanta a little over halfway to Columbia, I’m going to say this area is pretty much the same as when FDR spent winters nearby in Warm Springs. 



The park was built by the CCC’s (Civilian Conservation Corp) back in the thirties and what we’ve seen of it so far is typical rustic CCC trademark work. The campground is sparsely occupied and very quiet. We have a level shaded site with water and electric hookups.
