A-Walking we will go...Hi Ho The MERRY oh!!
I just HAVE to tell you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I went to the North Georgia Mountains with my dad yesterday, (I have kinda taken my mom's place,since her passing, since he enjoys this so much)
I take all kinds of pictures, and we were riding down the highway and I saw a beautiful waterfall at Vogel State Park, and I wanted my dad to turn around so I could get a quick shot.
He turns into the park, and asks the fella at the gate if we could just turn around, and the guy convinces my dad that if we drive around, we can walk a SHORT PATH (short path my butt!) to the view platform for the waterfall. Now...I have NEVER been able to walk well, and I had all kinds of alarms and red flags going off in my head...NO WALKING NO WALKING!!!
We went walking.
We walked all the way around the lake, over the bridge, and down a long steep path in the woods to the platform. That wasn't so bad...it was all pretty flat or down hill. I was NOT looking forward to walking back UPHILL.
But you know what?? Not ONLY did I do it, not ONLY was I barely winded, but I DIDN'T hit my asthma inhaler ONE TIME!!!! YEAH BABYYYYYY!!!
AND... there was this pretty little skinny lady with her dh that saw us finishing our walk, and says, "Is that the only way to the waterfall?" and I said "Yeah, but it's not so bad"...Well, she decided she wasn't going to do it!! I told my dad, "Look! Polly Prissy Pants didn't want to walk it and I DID!!"
I practically skipped back to the car!! (Mentally mind you...there was NO skipping going on! LOL!)
AND.. I was completely exhausted from that point on... I guess at 3.5 months out, I still don't have all the energy built back up yet, cuz man, I was a goner as soon as we got home (about 3 hours later).
ANYHOOZ...we had a lovely time, it was a beautiful day, I got lots of gorgeous pics and I SORTA HIKED!! LOL!!!
Have a good one!
