Looking for waterfalls!

At the beginning of our family hike, it was an adventure!


As we walk through a beautiful meadow scattered with purple and yellow wildflowers our mission is to find the Upper and Lower Falls. We do not have a map, but Kenny believes it is this way. Every corner must get us closer to the waterfalls. I wonder where all the people are?


We have yet to find a waterfall, but we have discovered a horrible smell! The earth is amazing! This muddy water is boiling up from the earth. I would burn my finger if I dared put my finger in it!



No waterfall yet!


Samantha is taking a break!
The whining has begun, but can you blame her after 2 miles of walking!


Someone on the trail felt sorry for us and gave us a map. We are so far away from the waterfalls! We have been on a nature walk no where near the waterfalls!!
Another trail, another meadow....



Finally after another 1 1/2 miles we have arrived at the Lower Falls. The kids are too tired to even walk to the Upper Falls. We will have to save that for another day....

Gorgeous photography! Too bad you don't have a picture of Elleanna's little breakdown. That would have been funny!
