When at #LakeIcaria a few days ago it felt like I was on an early #FallColorTour for a minute. We traveled to every access around the lake to see what it had to offer. It's a quaint little #reservoir with plenty of options for the locals, but not much worth a long drive. It does have a couple #campgrounds and a few huge cottages to rent though. #SoMee #someeoriginals #Awesme #originalcontent #photography #roadtrippin #hiking #travel #myphoto #nature #scenery #adventure #life #camping #LandscapePhotography

The year before last I went on a #FallColorTour out to the #GardenOfTheGods within the #ShawneeNationalForest in #Illinois. I've shared a couple photos from there, but not from my campsite. There are a few trails within this #WildernessArea, two with free hike-in #camping and one pay campground near the most popular trail, #ObersvationTrail itself. The latter is a short 1/4 mile loop that takes you through the #RockGarden. After checking out the Observation Trail and #hiking a bit of the much longer and more rugged #GardenOfTheGodsTrail, I headed to the #IndianPointTrail, because it was just a short distance from the overnight parking lot. It was also high in the #bluffs with magnificent #views, so a perfect spot. The camping is free on this trail as well. When I woke up this was my view right out my tent door. The area was actually fully enveloped in fog, so this photo is after it burned off a bit. I did get shots at different times while it was burning off, which I'll be sharing with you as well. #SoMee #someeoriginals #originalcontent #photography #AweSoMee #RVing #roadtrippin #boondocking #hiking #trail #travel #photography #myphoto #LandscapePhotography #nature #scenery #Nebraska #History #adventure #life #geology

Lucy is checking out the scenery and new smells around the #NaahDaahHey #trailhead at the #BurningCoalVein in the #LittleMissouriNationalGrasslands. We stopped here on our way through #NorthDakota for the night on one of our road trips. There was a little #campground down the hill, but the #views up here were so much better. Since we were in the middle of nowhere and no one was around, we figured there would be no harm in camping at the trailhead instead. We were right. The views here are just nonstop amazing. The coal veins are no longer burning, I believe , but can be reignited quite easily. #SoMee #someeoriginals #originalcontent #photography #roadtrippin #myphoto #travel #adventure #badlands #RVing
