*Note: started a while back.
On Labor Day we decided to go to Stone Mountain in NC. Apparently, half of NC also thought it would be a good day to go hiking. The parking lot was jam packed to the overflow. However, we know of another route up, so we weren't with the crowds as much. Also, we like to go off the trail. At one point we were on a section of the great slab of rock, but no one else was out there because it was off the beaten path. It was great.
The view from the top is amazing. You can see the surrounding mountains for miles around. God is so mighty and good. The mountains make me think of how great He is.
We also went to some waterfalls in the park. We really like the water.

There were so many of these flowers in the mountains.
Lydia looking good.
Walking up the mountain the back way.
The first little view. Not much
Another one.
I can't get enough of those rolling hills. Too much. Oh, wait, I just said I couldn't get enough. Modern English is very strange.
I spy a little color coming on down yonder.
Lunch break.
I like these pictures of close up branches and blury backgrounds.
This was on the other side of the mountain where no one else was. So sneaky. : )
Yep, another one.
Hickory grass lands.
Dad on the rock.
Always with a camera.
Just beautiful. If this isn't a picture of God's majesty, I don't know what is.
Just a little girl in a great big world.
Wow! So much beauty right there.
A little trail though the blueberry plants.
They were turning red and looking gorgeous.
A bedroom in the old homestead at the foot of the great stone. Can you imagine living there? What! That would be amazing.
We went to this little water fall.
Lydia, just hanging out in the water.
Oh, water. What a wonderful thing.
It was just agushing out.
Another little waterfall under the rock.
A slightly larger water fall.
From the top of the last one.
God is good.
