R & R Time at Cumberland Falls State Park

Here is a picture on Sabbath afternoon before we took our hike to see the waterfalls. This picture was taken right outside the lodge we went to see. There was also a little racoon right behind us in this picture. The weather was very sunny the whole time and perfect during the day, with highs in the upper 50s or low 60s. A guy told us about an average hike that we decided to take that turned out to be a moutaingoat trail! But it was great fun and very tremendous scenery.

Here is a great picture of mom and dad in front of the falls. It was a great view and we stopped here taking pictures for quite awhile. With so many photographers in our camping outing we took a lot of opportunities for photo shoots! Mom whipped up some great pancakes this morning as we got a nice hot breakfast to warm us up!


Here is a picture of Carrie laying on a rock partway through the Saturday afternoon hike where she took some pictures of the beautiful scenery. There was another waterfall behind Carrie. There were actually 2 on this one hike. The weekend was a lot of fun and went by way too fast. We could not have asked for any more perfect weather and there were lots of campfires thanks to Ryan K. rising up early 2 straight mornings in a row to build a fire right from scratch. Carrie and Jaclyn also helped out by hiking down the cliff outside their tent and cutting down dead trees and hauling up wood. I was still sleeping, or at least trying too!! This weekend did not involve any catch, at least with a softball. I threw a football with Ryan for awhile. His NY Giants whipped the Atlanta Falcons today. But then again, they are from Atlanta, what did you expect to happen? Just look at the Braves. Wow, this blog has never stopped me from posting any more than 3 pictures. I will post more later.

I like the picture of Carrie on the rock. I'm glad you got to come down from the northland to spend the weekend with us!
