I LOVE FALL!











We took a week off of work and school and went to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park to camp, hike, see the fall colors, relax, ride bikes and eat s'mores.  We had a super time.  James took Jacob and Kathryn on a 15 mile hike!  Amazing!  They had a super time and came back to camp just in time to start the fire (funny how I have lost the talent of fire starting with 2 scouts in the house), and have dinner.  We even got to see a mother black bear with 2 cubs.  It was a terrific week and we got home in time to put on our costumes and trick-or treat.
