Elk Creek Falls/Big Tree Trail

We had an adventurous weekend exploring more areas around us. On Friday we decided to have a fire and roast hot dogs out at the North Spit. It was dark, but Jamir had fun off roading along the shore. And, being the boy scout that he was, was able to start a fire with damp wood. We even found a random machete in a tree. We had little mice friends join us (although I was not happy about them trying to eat our food.) It was beautiful with the full moon and warm fire.

Tuvimos un fin de semana lleno de aventuras explorando mas lugares cercanos. El Viernes decidimos tener una fogata y asar hot dogs en la playa (North Spit.) Estaba obscuro, pero Jamir se divirtio manejando en la orilla de la playa. Y, siendo el Boy Scout que es, pudo encender un fogata con madera humeda. Hasta nos encontremos un machete en un arbol. Tuvimos ratoncitos que nos acompanaron. Fue hermoso con la luna llena y la calides de la fogata.




Then on Saturday the weather was awesome and didn't rain! We did some hikes around a small town, Powers. The falls and trail were beautiful with giant trees and yellow leaves. We supported a local diner later and had hamburgers.

El Sabado el clima estubuvo increible y no llovio. Hicimos caminatas cerca de un pequeno pueblo, Powers. Las cascadas y la vereda estaban padrisimos con arboles gigantes y hojas amarillas. Tambien apoyamos un restaurante local comimos hamberguesas. (asi escribe Amy hamburgesas)

The drive was beautiful along a river

Literally "Big Tree" trail This was the biggest one there, although the pic doesn't do it justice.



We played around by the river.
