best tent camping oklahoma image
Nanulak
Anywhere between Oklahoma City and Chattanooga? I love Chilhowee in TN. It is great tent camping 7 miles off the main road and no city lights. I'm looking to go camping with some friends. We will be driving in from different areas of the country. Not looking for back country camping, just something far off the road and away from town.
Thanks!

Check out Tims Ford State Park in Southern Middle TN at http://www.tn.gov/environment/parks/TimsFord/index.shtml
It is away from town on a beautiful lake. There is tent camping and cabins, boating, fishing, a Jack Nicklaus golf course, and lots of other activities. Nearby (but not too close) you can visit Jack Daniel's and George Dickel distilleries, Walking Horse Museum, Beechcraft Heritage Museum, Old Stone Fort State Archaeological Park, and lots of antique shops.

Camping with a 3 month old baby in 87 degree weather?
Leah
Is it ok to go tent camping with my daughter who is 3 months old (just turned 3 months) in oklahoma? it will be 86-89 all weekend... obviously i would keep her shaded, cooled off, we have a little pool, ect. But is it just flat out to hot of a temp to have a baby of her age outside? we are supposed to stay 2 nights.
Answer
She should probably be fine if you keep the bugs away and somehow manage to avoid sunburn.. but there is a good chance your little girl will be miserable the entire time. If I were you, I'd either stay home or leave her with grandma for the weekend.
Not to mention the other risks that camping includes.. such as spiders, snakes, bears, mosquito, bees/hornets, and even raccoons... I'd be fine with exposing myself to these risks, since they're unlikely, but I wouldn't do so to my infant.
