On Sunday the 22nd, we got up early and started out to the Mountains headed for The Dillard House.
We met Sharon, Ed, Olivia and Noah and had lunch - a feast in and of itself as many of you know. They bring layers upon layers of food to the table and you eat for several hours (if you are able). Roast beef, fried chicken, baked chicken, butternut squash, corn on the cobb, rice and gravy, cabbage, slaw, tomatoes, fruit, butter beans, green beans, fried okra, cauliflower in cream sauce, rolls, biscuits, corn muffins, dressing, cake with peaches & Ice cream. If you're on Weight Watchers. . . . plan not to count points that day! Granny had packed these precious little envelopes for the kids and Honey packed these special bags with goodies for the ca
mpers. We shopped the gift store and then proceeded to the petting zoo and walked around the sites for a while before we drove to Tallulah Falls Camp Ground (The Y Camp) where we drop the kids off.

Getting everyone settled into their cabins at the Y Camp was fun. We started with both boys. Driving up the winding road to the camp was excruciating - waiting in line with all the other parents was hard. No
ah was nervous - this was his first camp visit (Olivia and Zack are old pros). Zachary will be showing Noah the ropes and that seems just fine with Noah during the car ride! So we drive up and we all split into groups because Noah is in the regular boys camp and Zachary is in ADVENTURE CAMP (which I dorked and forgot I signed him up for). Adventure camp is the "hard core" stuff where you go white water rafting, camping off premises, rappelling, rock climbing etc. (the stuff the "big boys" do). Zack is THRILLED! Anyway, we get the gear unloaded, head to the cabins, make beds and meet back at the Dining Hall for a cool drink, a round of photos and then head to the girls camp for Olivia's drop off. (oh, we said good-by to the boys).

We dropped Olivia off (easily) - she was thrilled we were gone too - her cabin drop off was much nicer - simpler. Took some more photos - hugs - kisses - see ya' and that was it!
Kayaking . . . we had a great day - went over to the State Park at Tallulah and sat on the beach - drank a few cold ones and then just headed on back to Atlanta/Augusta. What a beautiful day yall . . . relaxing and fun fun fun!! Enjoy the photos!!
