| The birthday trip was over 320 miles, and I drove the whole route. Nerve-wracking for Grace and Becky, I suppose. |
Ah, Black Rock Mountain, with its breathtaking vistas from the parking lot.
 |
| Great photo ops! |
 |
| Bright blossoms bring color to the scenery. |
 |
| Now to actually hike. |
 |
| The morning sun didn't scorch us. Here it tends to be 20 degrees cooler than Central Georgia. |
 |
| "The light at the end of the tunnel is simply not all it's cracked up to be. I'm leaving." |
 |
| The information we were given doesn't seem to be correct as to how to get to the falls. |
 |
| Finally heading down to the car to find the lake. |
 |
| The quaint church up near the dam. |
 |
| Thunder rolled across the mountains, warning us not to go on the trail around the lake and risk getting our cameras wet. |
"The paparazzi follows me EVERYwhere. The price of beauty, I suppose."
 | |
| He does!! |
