Pilot Mountain: River Section.  March 2019
I had to actually drive through a small creek to get to the parking for this one.  I made some bad decisions while hiking, including following the railroad tracks thinking it would be easier :D


Obligatory rail road track pics




I'm a fan of the dormant tree with spots of colors that are birds photos


Texture!


Red leaves


Cobra chicken


Hammock time!  I actually had pierogies in a food jar to eat


 

That stream crossing looks inviting.  It's calling to me.

That looks fantastic.

It's not so much that I want to splash in the water.

I want to approach on that beautiful stone walkway, step from rock to rock across the stream without getting wet, and bound my way up the nice stone walkway on the opposite side and scamper off into the woods.

Ah!  Makes sense.  Yep, that was definitely fun.  It was even better that I didn't fall in the water :D

It was pretty awesome.  A lot longer of a hike than I thought.  I might have to go back this summer.  During the week when there's no one at the parks.  I bet it would be awesome then, if the water is still chilled.

@Lola - Sure!  I usually go out that way when I go to Asheville

Here's some of the dogs.  They count cause I used a camera :D

Those are some cute critters.

Thanks - it helps when they're frustrating as heck

I'm pretty sure you're up to the challenge, they look so much better than when you brought them home.
You done good plus.
 

Thanks, but that's not what I was referring to - just my inability to train them or room to get them trained properly.  Definitely not their mom
