sore legs and happy hearts

the drama of the wasp sting began to subside (unfortunately much faster than the swelling of her face) but abby felt good enough to hit the trails.  and why wouldn't she?  after all, it felt amazing outside.


the little people donned their camp cashiers shirts, and we headed over to whiteside mountain for a hike.  after a quick group shot at the bottom of the mountain...


...we started up.  everybody grabbed a partner...


we swapped partners around a bit...


and somehow poor josh ended up with two partners (who happened to be quite tired and in need of hiking help).


but we finally made it to the top, and it was well worth the effort.  gorgeous!!!


poor jack couldn't wait to get to the top of whiteside so he could see the "water fountain" (i got my mountains a little mixed up and might have told him there was a waterfall at the top) and you can see from the photo above that he was heavily disappointed.  but grandpam and papaw knew just what to do...

we left whiteside and drove to hike at a mountain with running water.  and not only was there a waterfall, but you could actually walk behind the water!!


WE DID IT!

That waterfall is gorgeous! I don't blame Jack for wanting to see it. I bet he was awe struck at going behind it!
