So yes, Vogel State Park in Georgia. We were there Saturday through Monday with a group of Bo's friends, but I didn't actually get back to Gainesville until Tuesday morning... and I drove straight to work. So I really still feel like I just got back even though tomorrow is Thursday.
Saturday we spent most of the day around the park and had a nice group dinner in a warm cabin with some wine and a fireplace. Sunday a couple girls got up and did a 5am hike... we slept in until the ripe hour of 9am. We had our breakfast, washed the dishes, got some more firewood and got ourselves ready and then it took a while for everyone to get themselves (and their tiny children) ready. So we had a leisurely family-friendly hike late in the afternoon and I spent some time taking photos while Bo was exploring potential bouldering areas just off the trail. We had another lovely evening and planned a more serious hike for Monday morning. Mountains here we come!
Well... it rained all morning. Rain and rain and rain. So we checked out, hung around until everyone else was on their way out as well as the rain slowed down and went up to Brasstown Bald. It was incredibly foggy, which was really quite nice. It was one of the few times you can feel totally safe while experiencing weather on a mountain. Apparently the view is really great from up there and you can see four states, but we could barely see each other so.... maybe next time :)
As before, the first one in the group gets the exif data and is the one that I'm using for the challenge.
