Road Trip to N. Carolina

Doesn't get much flatter than this.  A bit different than N.C.

Picnic dinner in a park in Lebanon, IN



There was a big hill.


Breakfast 1 outside the hotel in Lexington, KY




Breakfast 2 at a nice park in Lexington

Playing on the playground




Checking out the splash pad


Big bucket!



Icy treats

The kids' first happy meals.  (we avoided mcdonalds for a long time....)

Cruising on the Dragon's Tale... a very windy, up and down road through the mountains.  They take pictures of motorcycles and sports cars going around the big bends.  Nothing ruins your cool motor bike picture like having a station wagon behind you.

We're famous.  (Elly kept saying we were famous because people were taking our picture)



Godzilla Crossfire!

Posing at a scenic overlook with a view that was featured in the movie "Nell"

The view

The giant Fontana Dam, part of the TVA

Giving some rocks a bath

I think he was a snake...?





Studying some psychology 




Cruising on Papa's motorcycle 




Start to a day out on Fontana Lake

Lunch on the boat
















S'mores!



Hiking the Appalachian Trail













Making cookies

Eating cookies


Saying hi to Elly's horse


















Watching the rafters

Waterfalls in Smoky Mountain National Park









Nathan not cooperating with photo time


Turtle!


S'mores time again


The trip home.  Back to the Tail of the Dragon.  This time Nathan did not do so well and got sick.
