Chip poses for the camera these days; Cocoa doesn’t. Here she is looking away from my camera, but a friend captured all of us from above this past Sunday during a visit to Duke Creek Falls. It’s a place where two creeks come together. Notice the streams in this photo as they merge into one. This is a great place to visit because it is located on the Richard B. Russell Scenic Highway. A one mile hike leads to separate water falls and three different platforms where you can hang out with your dog or with family and friends.

Where’s Sandy?

This morning was clear, cold, and beautiful at Toccoa Falls. Look at the sunlight hitting the water at the top!

Winter White

This past weekend the weather was glorious—no rain, no snow. A friend who came for a visit suggested that I take this photo and name it “Winter White.” There are so many buildings like this one in the mountains. It is hard to resist to photograph each one. The smoke that is to the left of this old barn is from the controlled burn in the national forest that I mentioned in an earlier post.
