I want to start out by saying THANK YOU to the Smith family; for once again, inviting us down for the weekend; and always treating us like family!  We Love you guys!

A special thanks to Brenda and Truman Lee for the excellent food they prepared!

Any time spent with Jeanette; is always fun and adventurous; and you will definitely get your exercise!!!

We went on a couple of hikes; I'm sure in total; we probably hiked about 50 MILES!!!!   At least it felt like it!  I'm not sure how lil Ryan can keep up with Jeanette?! LOL

Anyway; come on along; and see some of the sites we saw.

OK; the next day; we went back to the cemetery; and then we went in search of a lake that was back in there somewhere; and I'll start out at when we found the lake. Because most of the pics on the way are pretty much what I've posted already.

anyway; the pic above is from Friday; and Jeanette and I walked to her neighbor's where she parked; to get her car; and Ron decided to walk back to her house, to see if he could beat us..He almost did!
