Andrews Cove Campground Georgia

Late lunch in the warm sunshine . I LOVE eating lunch in the woods.

Rain was on the way, so we headed off for a relaxing evening hike. RAIN FOLLOWED:)
Each forest trail is so unique (I don’t know what my photo captured up there in the trees🤔)
We’ve been very fascinated by the interesting trees we find a long the way, especially Mr. Nurseryman…..We always say, “If only these trees could talk. We’d love to hear the stories they could tell us.”

We left our cozy dry Lightchaser and headed close by to Helen, Georgia for a Saturday night dinner. It was pouring rain. We thought for a second that we were back in Oregon.😊 The town was celebrating Octoberfest, so it was quite a hopping place! We found a little German restaurant in this cool German themed town and totally enjoyed our waitress, Haley as we each shared stories about our lives. We connected well with each other and received unexpected hugs as we said goodbye. She sent us home with plenty of their dinner rolls along with butter and jam. 😳. Our dinners for the next few days were enhanced with German style rolls.

Schnitzel…. Soooooo gooood. The dinner was much better than this picture my spouse took!

Our last morning at Andrew’s Cove, we woke up to sunny weather. We packed up ready to head back to Helen for the afternoon. A hiker had parked his car in a place that made it hard for us to maneuver our way out with our camper. Our sweet neighbors jumped in to lend us a hand and we managed to worm our way out!

Thanks Curt and Renae! We couldn’t have done it without you!

We loved the little city of Helen! It was Sunday, so we decided to attend the Presbyterian church service.We enjoyed the service and met a delightful couple we are now staying in touch with. We walked around town and had a delicious lunch before heading out on our next adventure.

Love adventuring with this guy. (He LOVES adventuring with her -RW)
Lunch at the Troll Restaurant with music coming from the other side of the river.
Our first time eating FRIED GREEN TOMATOES….. Good like the movie.

Falling in Love with Fall Creek Falls Tennessee

The crisp fall weather and light filtering through the fall colors made for a beautiful stay in this Tennessee Park.

See Lightchaser nestled in among the trees?
This amazing stick bug showed up on Roger’s shoulder! We were careful as we deposited her near some fine sticks.
Ah, fall! Love it.
Can’t get enough of these colors.
We took this picture right before the rain started and the clouds came in! We were amazed at the beauty in the mist.
Sunny says, “It’s raining! What ARE we doing?”
“Come on! Let’s go home! Can’t you see the rain dripping off my nose?”

We took an early morning hike to the falls. The weather was sunny and the air was crisp. It was a PERFECT morning for a hike!

🤔Which way should we go?
Sunny says, “I’m not walking across this bridge.”
Sunny says, “0k, I’m coming just go slow. This is scary.”
Reflections
We found a good spot to sit and enjoy this beautiful refreshing morning.
Good job reading the sign, Sunny.
Finding beauty along the way.
Great place to meander along through the forest
Interesting area with sulfur smells.🤔
Sunny loved relaxing in the warm sunshine.
We would definitely return to this park!

Fort Rock State Park

We left Fall Creek and headed south toward Tallahassee. We found this state campground and pulled in for just a night. We had a great spot by a lake, and we decided to take a walk around the lake before dinner. The lighting was PERFECT and the colors reflecting in the lake were amazing!
