burgess falls

 When we got to Cookeville on Friday, we headed to Burgess Falls first.  The girls weren't in the best moods because all they really wanted to do was check into the hotel.  We kept reminding them we couldn't even check in yet so we might as well just enjoy ourselves.  The hike was really fun, not super strenuous, and really beautiful.  Some of the bridges had recently been washed out so they were closes, which was really disappointing.  We were still able to see a lot, but we weren't able to get down to the base of the falls. We will definitely need to go back.


 The weather could not have been better this weekend for hiking!  It was a little cooler than it had been last weekend, but it was sunny and clear.


 There was a super fun playground by the parking lot and the girls played there for a really long time.  They could have stayed there all day.  Caimbree especially has been obsessed with playgrounds lately and she screams bloody murder when we pull her away.  After we left the super fun playground we headed to the hotel to get settled.  Then we went on the other hike close to the hotel, had dinner, and went to bed so we could hit Fall Creek Falls Saturday morning!  It was a great Friday!
