Family 1/3 up the waterfall. Caro and I led the pack (fast) and she kept saying, "Mamie, this is so hard!"
Over the 4th of July, my family decided to do something different than the usual. Instead of our annual trip to the beach, we piled up and went to a cabin on the border of Georgia/NC/Tennessee. I can honestly say it was one of the best family trips, if not the best, that we've ever had. We stayed in a 3-story cabin (we each had our own floor) in the middle of nowhere. The cabin had a pool table, hot tub, outside fire place, stream-like feature, and wrap around porch. AND, each floor had their own balcony. It was insane. The views were gorgeous, the time was precious, we had so much quality time together. I believe we turned the TV on twice. (If you know me, you know how sweet this is to me....I love quality/quiet time with people I love.)
We took one day for shopping in Atlanta and on the outskirts and the rest of the time we hiked (the start of the Appalachian Trail), played in streams, acted like mountain people (can you believe that about me?!), ate at the top of the mountain, cooked all but two of our meals together, grilled, played cards, pool, snuggled. It was just a very sweet time. I highly, highly, highly recommend!
Below are pics. Of course the camera can not do it justice.
The fireplace at our cabin. We built fires every night. It was cool enough! We made smores the last night.
The view from my balcony. Love.
