But first we stopped for lunch:
Yup, that's grass on the roof.
After we lollygagged and ate too much, we headed up the mountain...
"Look, Ma! Water!"
We tried for a together photo, but it ended up blurry. Sadness.
PS: I am standing on a hill. He's actually like 8 inches taller than me.
Upper falls.
Oh, brother. Wearing my sunglasses and being cool...
Lower falls. More strenuous hike, but better reward, methinks.
And like the good adventurers we are, the Siblings Bishop dared defy the Forest Rangers...
Oh yes, that's Bishop the Elder leaping back over the ledge from the DANGER AREA.
Here we are, defying the forest rangers and being DANGEROUS:
And some of the views from my dangerous vantage point:
Well worth the danger, I'd say.
And then on the walk back, I spotted this little plant, which was being shy for the focus on my camera:
Trillium
All in all a great day, in which we had sibling bonding time, discussed my WIP, discussed the nature of Southern Gothic literature, listened to Old Crow Medicine Show, and had a rollicking good time.
Thanks for watching!
And don't forget the Bad Girls Blogfest tomorrow!
(I am a badgirl--I trespassed on a National Forest!) ;-)
