We found a bridge to walk over. There was a trail on the other side, but it was already getting towards dusk, so we only went as far as the other side of the bridge.


Dad and the boys walked out to the middle of the creek.


















This was a little overlook and gift shop. We stopped to see the view of the falls below. Dad ran into an old friend from NY. How funny.

These are old moonshiners, making some moonshine. I'm not really sure what they had in there, but it was sure working like a still

These guys were getting bored so they found some rocks to climb on.
