I know its hard to talk about Spring Break with the temperatures outside still below freezing. Or maybe this is a great time to start talking about Spring Break. The kids are already making all their plans on where they want to go for Spring Break. They usually get a week off from their high schools or colleges and head to some place that is warm. I live in Georgia, so a lot of Spring Breakers go to Florida for their fun in the sun. I like Panama City Beach in Florida the best. Miami, Fort Laurderdal and Daytona are fun too, but I have always thought that Panama City had more to do there; than those other beaches in Florida.

So will you be making a trip for your Spring Break vacation? Maybe you just look forward to having the week off and get a chance to take a break from all your studies and the homework you have been doing. I think the best Spring Break I ever had was at Allatoona Lake here in Georgia. Some of my friends and me all packed up and went down there to camp out by the lake and we stayed there for a few days. It was a lot of fun and we didn’t spend much money; compared to a trip to Florida. We would stay up all night and sleep during the day. Once the sun would start going down, it was the best time to be at Allatoona. I love the evening-time down on that lake or any lake really. It’s great because the heat starts to let up from a hot day and the fish start jumping around in the lake too. I would fish all night long and most of the time we would just bait up our rods and leave them out in the lake all night. Someone would always go check the poles around 2 or 3 o’clock in the morning and there would be one rod with a catfish on it. The fish most times probably had hooked itself much earlier and they would swim around the whole lake area and it never failed the catfish would have our rods all tangled up. It would take us hours to try and figure out whose fishing rod caught the fish.

Now with drought in the forecast for much of Georgia, its not likely that Lake Allatoona or Lake Lanier will have any water in them for this Spring Break. I guess the kids now will have to find something else to do in Georgia and maybe they will have to just go down to Florida. They can still go camping, but they don’t have all the fun that the lake can bring to a camping trip. Let me know about your Spring Break plans.
