Today has been much
prettier. And sunnier. And warmer.
Not that much warmer, but the sun helps so much. My spirits were warmer at least. We had pancakes, eggs, bacon and fruit for
breakfast. Then Jim and Danna broke camp
and packed up. We all went a couple of
miles down the road to hike up part of a mountain. It was actually a “scramble” which is pretty
much just what it sounds like. The kids
loved it. The adults were very
careful. It was fun and had beautiful
views. I got several great pics. This is the first place we have really seen
the fall colors. I think it has been so
wet this fall that a lot of leaves fell before the colors got too rich. It is pretty here (when the fog lifts out of the way) and it's easy to see the valley of colors below because we are up high.
After our little hike, we
said goodbye to the Arnetts. It wasn’t
too hard because we know we will see them in a little over a month and we will
see Brad’s parents tomorrow. So we
didn’t feel too abandoned.
We went back to the toasty, warm Great Room at the Lodge to eat a picnic lunch and catch up on electronic
communication. We played Jenga and the
girls made domino snakes and then knocked them down. That is where we are right now. We plan to return to camp shortly and try to stay
warm until bedtime. Brad has been pretty
sick the last couple of days. He has a
really nasty sinus cold. So we won’t do
too much more today.
