Same Day Out..

We lucked onto a new viewing area with parking and winding trails.  This is right up my alley but sadly Hubby can't climb nor walk a lot.
Our view from the first look off was spectacular but then I spotted a trail.  Hubby waited for me to explore.
First I saw this...okay, but how high can it be, really.
After quite a steep hike I saw another sign.
I can't see the top.
I can't see the bottom.
And yes, that is a person falling off a cliff on the sign!
At the summit even the trees were falling over the bluff.
The view was worth the hike even in ninety plus temps.
Right then left Norfork River as far as I could see.
An island and a little white water was way down the river.
I saw rocks and wild flowers.  The descent was very steep.  I had to use my brakes a lot. I saw a new view and I was loving the planet, a wonderful creation.  I was thankful when I reached the bottom.  I acted tough as if the height did not bother me.  I was telling Hubby how beautiful the view was.  He saw me coming and had a drink and a air conditioned truck waiting for me.

Gotta love a man that encourages you to have an adventure even if he no longer can.  I think I will keep him.
