Yesterday, Jay and I went on a trip with his Sunday School class to Talullah Falls Gorge State Park in north GA. It was a great day!! We had about 9 or 10 kids from his class that went with us. We rode the church bus, and we had pizza and candy bars on the way up. We got there and we looked at all the exhibits in the welcome center, and we watched a little movie that told the history of the Gorge, and how they brought electricity to the mountain. We also saw the video of George Walenda, the guy who walked across the gorge on a tightrope in 1970. He stopped twice on his way acroos the tightrope to do headstands.....CRAZY! After the movie, the fun started. We walked over 600 steps down to the bottom of the gorge and saw 4 or 5 waterfalls. It was really beautiful. Then we walked the 600 steps back up to the top and hiked the trail back around to the welcome center. Needless to say, Jay-man was about wore out...and Daddy was, too. We got back to the bus, had some snacks, and the boys played kickball in the big field for about 30 minutes-1 hour. Then we loaded up and came back home. I truly enjoyed getting to spend the day with my big boy. I love and appreciate the times that we get to have together.
