A Memorial Weekend in Georgia

We spent memorial weekend with the Parks at their cabin and when we arrived, we were greeted and treated to some of their home grown produce. YUM!

Farmers Scotty and Dary:This very well may be the first time we hiked without rain... it sprinkled, but no downpour. YAY!

We hiked a trail at Lake Conasauga...Lots of beavers in the area...Jack in the pulpitFun in the creekPost hikeWe also spent some time at Scott's mom's house and in the stream that runs through her property.
