Rock Park

   We went to the Rock Park yesterday!  Our house is 30 minutes from the state line and the park is another 15 minutes. It is at the top of the Ocoee River where they let the water out. They had not let the water out yet this week, so the water level was a little low. It is a huge area that has a little store and restaurant, trails that go on forever, and the views are amazing.  The kids love to walk on the rocks (and I have mini-heart attacks!) and then wade in the shallow water. I walk on the trails and enjoy the view. We looked for the best spots to play in and the laughter filled the air. It was not crowded at all since school is still in session here. When the water is let out for the weekend white water rafting, the crowds will be in full swing.  The weather was perfect, sunny, but not too hot. We stayed for 3 hours and then had a picnic lunch.
     Dad and Patricia came back from her brother's surgery. Everything went better than planned and he was released the next day. Amazing!
    I have added several pages to our blog, one each for the kids and one for pictures. Check them out!
Life is good!
