Storming the South Day 7

Due to the fact that I am really tired tonight and trying to pack up, as we leave tomorrow, this will be a short, picture heavy post.

Today we decided to check out 2 state parks not far from our resort. We started with the closest one which had a lovely lake to walk around and a bridge/dam that created a beautiful waterfall.

Don’t try this at home!! Megan and I did some serious off roading to check out the waterfall.

But the risk was worth it, what a view!!

Continuing with what turned out to be a waterfall themed day, we headed over to “the highest waterfall this side of the Rockies.”

Falls Creek Falls really is the highest waterfall east of the Rocky Mountains measuring an astounding 256 feet. It was truly breathtaking. For such a large waterfall it was hard to tell where the water went, it seemed to just go into the rocks below.

Over the past 7 days I have been amazed time and time again by the beauty of this great state of TN. We are sad to be leaving tomorrow. Everyone here is so friendly and nice and the time we have spent as a family is truly unforgettable.

Since this is our last night we decided that we couldn’t leave TN without trying some local Bar-B-Q, as well as indulging in some ice cream from a cute stand we saw on the way into town.

Both were absolutely wonderful, though I am ashamed to admit we did eat our ice-cream first. We had to be sure we had room.

Tomorrow we will be heading out in the morning for the first half of our trip home, we are hoping to spend the night in Indy again, as long as the weather and Buggy cooperate.
