I did come back!2533 viewsI don't like top down photos but, this one shows my destination, the rock where the water disappears.

My first visit was a flop. This time, with a little more experience
(how much more experience does a 74 yr old goat need) I made it to the top.

Reflections2533 viewsThe Red Bud reflection in Buffalo Mountain Camp pond makes us pause to remember where we were August 6, 2012.

Don't pause too long, this pond will be filled with Kayaks and energized kids before you can say "What Flood?"

Mill Creek Falls 2528 viewsAs easy as it gets! The falls is on private property but, being a camping ministry, they are easy to get along with. Please, check in with the camp.

Pinnacle Lookout Tower2521 viewsPinnacle Lookout Tower occupies the spot where an old Fire Tower once stood and is visible from the town of Unicoi, TN.

There is a trail leading to the tower from I-26, Unicoi exit. Better take along some water and energy bars, you will need both.

Little Qualicum Falls-32520 viewsLQF-3&-4 are the same view with focal point and exposure time differences. My preference is the darker photo with the closer rocks as the focal point, rather than the falls itself.

Least We Forget2520 viewsSoldiers of stone stand at Antietam where in one single battle 23,000 casualties were suffered, more Americans than in one single day of battle, before or since.
