Last night we went to Burgess Falls State Park. We all walked around wondering how we had never been there before! It was breathtaking! We enjoyed a 3/4 mile hike around the falls and to a couple overlooks. Jak is Jak, so I was nervous! The trails were maybe a foot to a foot and a half wide at times. There were signs everywhere that said 'high bluffs' or 'rugged terrain!' Probably not the best for a 3-year-old and a 30-year-old with a baby in tote! We had a great time, though! It was beautiful!
On the way home we were talking about how neat it was and using all kinds of adjectives to describe the falls...amazing, spectacular, wonderful, beautiful, etc. So, we asked Jak what he thought...how would he describe them...he said "it looked like hair!" :) Yeah, I guess it kind of did! So, I had to put my teacher hat on and told him he should be a writer some day! What a great description! He told me "no." haha
We had a great time and enjoyed the falls very much!!! I'm just glad Jak was able to see them and appreciate them. Not many three-year-olds are blessed enough to do and see all the things he has!
At the end of each day, we always ask Jak, "What was your favorite part of your day?" Last night, we all had the same answer..."The BIG falls!" Great day!
Please excuse the picture postings. The internet connection is slow here and I'm impatient. They are on here, but not in any order! It's kind of a mess! :) Still beautiful, though!
