Things I learned in the Mountains

There are certain things I have learned from life in the mountains.







#1 There IS wildlife everywhere.




~



Bear Claw











~





#2 There are strange things that I would rather not touch me.



Including goliath bugs and gigantic arachnids.





~





#3 I HATE mountain roads. They make you sick.



Keep head between your knees and pray that it ends soon.







~




#4 The shops of Blue Ridge are cute and many.








~





Best ice cream is from Sweet Treats.









~



They mix together flavors you pick.








~








They also have a really neat tree.






~


#5 Old Railroads are cool.





~

#6 Places to stop and cuddle are a must.




~


#7 Dahlonega is the place to go for gold.




~


#8 Panning for gold is hard.


I don't like it.


~
AND, you end up doing it for your kids cause they get tired of it.


Or pretend you are stupid and let the guide "help" you. (Must tip on that occasion)



~
End product. Each piece worth about a dollar.




~


Great place to go.




~



#9 Mining for gems...




~


A LOT FUNNER!




~


Bags of gems





~


The thrill of finding a gem!




~



"Believing" you struck gold.




~


"Is this a gem Mommy?"




~

"Why yes, yes, it is!"




~
Old mining equipment but still a working mine.




~
Loved seeing the old ways




~








~
Moonshine Baby




~

#10 Never let go of your gold!




~



#11 Flowers make you happy no matter what.

Heart shape



~
#12 NEVER forget how much fun it is to play games with your kids.




~

#13 Old looking pictures give off a different feeling.




~



#14 Always try new places to eat.

They always turn out be to favorites.


~
#15 Finding a place that lets you mix a six pack to find your new favorite....

AWESOME!
~

This one is good too.
~

#16 Learning you are good at lace but accepting you can't do 4bead yarn overs on it.
So delicate and beautiful.
~
#17 There are yarn stores out there in the middle of nowhere.
Next Entomology?
~
#18 Last but not least

Thank god I have kids. They bring such wonderful experiences to my life.
