Only 28 today.....must be because we DID NOT have hot dogs?
Getting our "dogs" in order
No bathroom at this trailhead, so the girls
found one on their own!
We'd like it better if everyone would turn around
for our group shot.....
A few last minute instructions....!
Gloria fixing her sticks....Brian just fixing?
This is where we split up.....
some on the Lookout Window Trail
the others....around the lake.
We start off sloooooow....
Our last view of Cove Lake for a while....
Nice shirt....
Most of us went up the hill with a smile on our face!
I said most .......not ALL!
It would not take long to get to the top....
C.J. and Kaiden would be the first.
We really didn't think it was that far up to the top!
See, some are still smiling.
We did rest a little.....here and there!
Even Kip needed a little rest.....and Tim too!
Big smile Carol.....she is gritting her teeth...
This is a REAL smile from Kathy....
(You can smile while out of breath)
This would be our view at the Lookout....
someone needs to trim a few trees?
Elizebeth is tall enough to see over
the trees.....
We all made it to the top.....but disappointed
about the view.....
Time to head down the mountain....
Happy hikers....Kathy and Lindsey
Angela, Mary, Joe and Tim and a little bit of Kip..
Linda and Monica
Melissa and Kat....sisters.
Danny and Rusty and a few folks in the back!
Our first bridge crossing...one of six.
Some of the bridges are not in the best of shape....
ask Lila.
No water under the bridges today.
Kathie, Kaiden and C.J.
Elizebeth has lost the front part of her dog?
Or maybe that's the back?
The Narrow Bridge....not in good shape?

We tested The Long Bridge.....it is in GOOD shape and are we glad!
One of my favorite trees.....
Theo needed a drink too....
Made it off the trail.....time for lunch!
Wait, here comes some more.....
....and some more....
A little more trail to do and then maybe lunch?
Not sure what Lila and Linda are up to?
Maybe they are calling in for pizza?
....only the Shadow knows....
I think I see our lunch spot....
What a perfect day.....!
Kip took a nice swim before lunch.
On the wall.....in the sun.....nice!
Linda is really on the wall!
I decided to sit below the wall....
It would not take us long to eat.....
Canoes and kayaks for rent....
How about this for a bathhouse?
Even a nice putt putt golf course...
Even a nice place to swim....
Anyway, back on the trail again...
Heading for our cars....
Had to take it kind of slow....
