Hidden up in the Mountains

Our dearest friends have been begging us to come with them to their favorite get-away spot.  Today we were all finally free and up for an adventure.  We drove about an hour outside of the city and up a bit of a mountain.  Finally we ended up at this amazing outdoor restaurant sort of place nestled between two streams and smack dab in the middle of a forest.

It was such a great day.  The kids played, roamed, and got dirty to their heart's content.  We sat and talked and laughed to our heart's content.

Praise the Lord for His beautiful creation and wonderful friends to share it with!

This boy LOVES hammocks.
If there is a hammock, you can bet he is in it!

Huge trout!

Lunch/supper
The homemade bread and butter, and the mushrooms covered in cheese were the best!

This old man was picking figs.
He told me he would share if I told Obama, "No War!"  HA!

There were lots of little waterfalls, and the sound was so relaxing!
