Our latest adventure

We try to have a new adventure at least a couple of times a month and yesterday was the day!  We took the Skylift up to the top of Stone Mountain.  It's about ten minutes away, but it had been years since we'd been up to the top.

It's quite a view!






 It was such a beautiful, clear day that we could see the skyline of downtown Atlanta in one direction and all the way to the Appalachian Mountains in another.

The Chipmunk was fascinated by the Skylift and LOVED that he got to "fly right up there!"

But mostly, he loved the pulleys.  We had to have a family portrait taken in front of them :)




Stone Mountain is a granite outcrop called an igneous intrusion.  It's known for a lot of reasons (the carving, for a start), but Little Man was mostly interested in the pulleys and the puddles.

And jumping, of course.









 The puddles were for throwing rocks in, of course.

 

He made several new friends

And believe me when I say we all got a lot of exercise!!!
