Chickasaw only 97 more to go

We went to Chickasaw on October 4th with my sister, her husband and son. We camped there on October 4th. It was a hoot. We were only able to stay one night. Here is the link to Chickasaw http://tnstateparks.com/parks/campground/chickasaw the campsite was slightly crowded not too bad but close enough to hear your camping neighbors fart. Our campsite was small and we were right across from the playground which made the kids happy. We got to set up the tent (no pop up this time) and got the fire started before everyone got there. I walked the dog, notice I am not saying puppy anymore, around all the campsites saying "Hello" to fellow campers. We got a crappy campsite all of the other ones were beautiful. My sister and her family showed up with enough wood to build a house. It was awesome. My brother in law cooked all the meals which were extremely nice since I am normally the one that has to do all of that. I was a little disappointed at the bathrooms at the park. State of Tennessee please send them money for a bathhouse revamp. The camping was cheap because there is no electricity there. We didn't care because what is the point of camping if you are worried about all that. It was cool that night which is great camping weather as far as my family is concerned. Since we were only staying one night we tried to cram as much as we could in that one day. We did a 2 mile hike and my sister and I picked wildflowers along the way. I know you are not supposed to do that but I (we) could not help ourselves. It helped with the camping ambiance or at least that is our reasoning behind it. My sister and I are very closely bonded. We love each other unconditionally. I could have stayed several more days at Chickasaw. Also, one other thing that was disappointing was the bridge over the lake was out. Again I repeat....STATE OF TENNESSEE PLEASE HELP CHICKASAW. It's a beautiful place that needs a little love and attention.
