Weekend With The Folks

Two weekends ago Jane11 and I went down to visit my folks for the weekend. The leaves were absolutely beautiful! Here are some photos from the weekend.

Sabbath at Red Clay

On October 7, 2006 after church a group of us headed out to Red Clay State Park for a picnic lunch since it was such a beautiful day! The temperature was almost too cool, but the warm sun made it perfect! We spread out some blankets and relaxed most of the afternoon...





Jane11 and I also took pictures of flowers and bugs...



I was testing out the macro with my new 6 megapixel camera - Check out the detail on those bugs!

For supper, we all got Chinese take-out and went over to Jen and Gill's place and played Apples to Apples. We took Tofu along with us so she and Niko (Jen and Gill's cat) could "play". They spent most of the time just stalking eachother around the appartment sometimes accompanied by a hiss or a growl... :) The first photo below is of Tofu sitting partially on Jane11's head in the car. Jen is looking in through the window.



The last photo was taken Sunday morning. Tofu was sitting in the bedroom window and the lighting was beautiful. I love this picture! I think it's a good photo of our daughter (but then again I might be a little biased).

Camping at Jack's R!ver

For Labor Day weekend 2006 we went camping at Jack's R!ver in the mountains of north Georgia. The weather was wonderful considering the reports were predicting thunder storms all weekend. The hike from the parking lot to the r!ver was about 4.5 miles. There were 7 people in our group (Er!c, Jane11, Todd, Gil, Jen, Mark and Kristin). Here are some pictures.

Here are a few views of our campsite


(1) Jane11 is ready to swim (2) The Hullquists and the Cayabyabs


Mark swimming in the big pool


(1) The upper falls empty into the big swimming pool (2) The lower falls are bigger than the upper falls and also empty into a nice large pool

(1) View of the main pool from up on the cliff. You can jump from this spot into the water (maybe 18 - 20 feet down). (2) This is the view from another good jumping spot. The object is to jump into the pool of water just below the waterfall. This jump is also about 18 - 20 feet.

(1) Todd sitting on the edge of the upper waterfall. (2) Jane11 jumping off the upper waterfall - 8 or 9 feet. (3) Some guy doing a cannonball off the 20ft cliff.
