I definitely file that under "Live 'n' Learn," then! With all that gunfire, there must not have been a live duck from Virginia to Florida that morning!
That's a crazy state park with the giant camp store and nice wifi lounge! Great place, need to go there. Had to watch this one a second time, making our list.
I hope we go back sometime - since it was Thanksgiving, we had to spend a day away from the park, so we never got around to the section of the park with the sinkholes (a natural feature there). We wanna see that sometime.
Just saw this nice video from last year showing Santee State Park. Looks like a cool place. Lake Marion is really pretty. Nice you were able to spend time with family. Merry Christmas!
Those shots that you hear are shotguns from duck hunters all across Lake Marion. Santee State Park isn't far from the blowout (where the Congaree River dumps into the lake) and its a great spot to duck hunt. I've hunted there many times! My wife and I are in Lexington, SC and we are looking at getting our first RV soon. I've been enjoying the videos of your travels around the state!
Sometimes, when trying to figure out an angle to make the hose reach the water tap, that city water connection does make me have to remember my geometry from high school...
Looks like fun. We're not too far from you guys in Bonaire, GA. We've been wanting to find some great places to camp in SC and NC. We'll have to check this place out.
Yeah! Down Macon direction, if memory serves. I think I've seen you guys hiking in your videos, so check out Paris Mountain SP over in Greenville (our previous trip video) - that place has LOTS of different trails of varying degrees of difficulty. We'll show everybody our hike of the Santee SP trail in our video next week.
As one of the other comments mentions, all the shooting is the duck hunters. The season opens around the thanksgiving holiday every year.

Next time go on the lake shore side.
We've thought about that. I'm a little surprised that we haven't returned to Santee yet. Maybe we can work on that sometime this year... 🤔
LOL🤣🤣 My wife is the same way about firewood, she is the pyro in our family! 🔥🔥
I often wonder how a guy like me, who has lived with the nickname "Smokey" his entire life, ended up with such a firebug...
Great video!
Thanks a bunch! Keep an eye out for the second part of the trip, which will be up here middle of next week!
Come on, fire wood is a must! Great video, excited to see what part 2 has in store!
Thanky, thanky! You're right - once she got the fire going, I started digging it. Part 2 will be up mid-next week!
I’m with Jessie! I am happiest when we have firewood and a campfire!😁🔥 the best moments.
Really enjoyed your video and the park! Thanks for sharing!
Being married to a guy named "Smokey," it's not often he lets me play with matches! I called this one a victory!

Glad you found this one! Be sure to check out “Part 2” of that trip, too! Merry Christmas back to you, and a Happy New Year!!
@@LiveNLearnRV Will check it out. Thanks!
Looks like a really nice park. The video of the lake is beautiful!
Thank you! Glad you liked it!

Andrew Blackwell Mystery solved!! Glad you're watching... and educating me! More of the "learning" than "living" in this case! 👍🏻
Nice place to camp, Interesting spot for the water to enter the rv.

Nice WiFi lounge. I’ve been to that store numerous times but never went into that part. I feel so cheated now.
Well, look at it this way - next time you go, you can see something there that you've NEVER seen before! 😉 Thanks for watching!
Looks like you have a great Thanksgiving! Looking forward to part 2! Good job!
Thanks, Coach!
Great video thanks.Thank God 🙏 Hillary isn't our president. 👍🏻
Not that we want to get political on here... but AMEN!!!
