Pleasant Ridge County Park!

A week is such a fast thing! Seems like only a day ago We headed out to sis's house...and  we had a sweet Memorial Day Picnic at the Pleasant Ridge County Park near Travelers Rest SC. There is a camp ground there but it was closed...we had a nice picnic then took a quick hike, my knee is really giving me a fit so strenuous hiking is out for a while...but easy trails call my name, I limp and later bring out the ointment!


Still managed to find a small slide/water fall!

it was in my Waterfall Book!! Bingo. 

This is a great MT Bike/Hiking loop trail...this park was used mainly by blacks, when segregation was still in force in the South....the past is best left in the past...today all are welcome in ALL parks! TG...but MOST churches continue to be segregated, go figure?



Mom was happy to get some sun and this dragon fly landed on her head...after he checked out the fence....


We read up on it in my sisters Animal Totem Book,,,,it said Dragonfly is telling you to get out in the sun and soak up some Vit D. Mom's been out of the hospital about 3 weeks...so she needs to get some sun!




The Mt. Laurel was in full bloom all through the woods.




we found this old chimney on the hike...



and we found this cool tree that reminds me of another tree I found once...




Fun was had by all who attended, and that's the END
